Ted Scheu (”That Poetry Guy”) is a 3rd-4th grader at heart. Ted’s work has
appeared in about a dozen anthologies in the US and UK. He is a former teacher
living in Vermont, who works full-time visiting schools and writing hilarious
poetry.
Ted says, ” I have the best of both worlds. I get to ‘field test’ my poems
with elementary school kids all over the world, but, most satisfying of all, I
get to work in K-6 classrooms in workshop settings, helping young writers find
their own voices through the magic of poetry.”
