Every year, I read dozens of children’s picture books and poetry collections about nature, science, and conservation. Many are informative. Some are beautiful. A few manage to be both. But it is surprisingly rare to find one that teaches an important environmental concept while also succeeding as a genuine work of poetry.
Welcome back, everyone! It’s time once more for the Children’s Poetry Blog Post Roundup. This week, I’ve collected the latest happenings and heartening updates from the vibrant world of children’s poetry, specially curated for you. Let’s take a peek at what’s been unfolding!

A Great Opportunity for Young Poets (and a Perfect National Poetry Month Activity)
April is National Poetry Month, which makes this a perfect time to encourage young writers to try something new—or take their poetry a step further.
The Voices of Lincoln Poetry Contest 2026 is now open, and it includes a special category just for poets age 18 and under. Even better, there’s no entry fee, so it’s an easy, low-pressure way for students to write, revise, and share their work.
Every once in a while, a poetry book comes along that feels like pure kinetic energy on the page. That’s exactly the experience I had reading Dinos That Drive by Suzy Levinson, illustrated by Dustin Harbin. From the very first pages, it’s clear this is not a quiet, contemplative collection. This is a loud, lively, engine-revving celebration of dinosaurs, vehicles, and wordplay.
And really, what more do you need than that?
The premise is delightfully simple: dinosaurs are back, and not only are they alive and well, they’re driving everything from motorcycles and taxis to submarines and rocket ships. Each poem introduces a different dino, a different vehicle, and a different comedic scenario. The result is a collection that feels fast-paced, inventive, and consistently surprising.
