Wordless picture books, like paintings and other art, offer a wonderful opportunity to inspire poetry and other creative writing.
I especially like David Wiesner's wordless books, Aaron Becker's Journey trilogy, and the art books by Amy and Greg Newbold. What poem will you write today?

- Mr. Wuffles by David Wiesner
- If Picasso Painted a Snowman by Amy and Greg Newbold
