Butch & Louie's Book of Poetry is a clear example that poetry is everywhere; you just have to know how to see it. The book begins by speaking in general of what poetry is, and that anyone can enjoy it. It succeeds very well with a variety of poems and carefully chosen words. Butch & Louie express themselves in ordinary language, with everyday situations that anyone can relate to, but in a fun and interesting way. Topics can be objects, like talking about a hat, or it can be about travel, even situations. However, it is not known what theme will follow. Some poems have humor, others have a touch of irony or a twist at the end, with wording that keeps you attentive and expectant.
It's very entertaining to read Butch & Louie's Book of Poetry because it has the magic to present the unexpected. It doesn't matter if the next poem is long or short, or if it will talk about an object or something deep; you know that it will be very different and creative. Its surprise factor is very attractive. Butch & Louie's feelings are contagious, that's why all their poems are enjoyable. Both children and adults can read the content that will motivate them to seek creativity in everyday stuff. This book is perfect to introduce new readers to poetry and to demonstrate that formality is not necessary. The important thing is to show what comes from the heart.
