Gary's love for poetry...

While Gary was attending school one day he went to the library. Amongst all of the other books he found a book of poetry. After he learned about the concept he became totally intrigued with it! He started writing poems for fun then when he finished school he attended a poetry writing class at the age of 20. He made many children's books and wrote many poems in his writing career. Many of the poems he wrote were about living in his neighborhood and his life.
