Isabelle’s Muse

About the Book

My name is Isabelle Scott, and I am eight years old. I will turn nine in May. I am from Scottingham Estate. My favorite thing to do is read. I like poetry because it’s my own ideas. My all-time favorite poem is titled “Life’s Mysteries.” I like it because I wrote it myself. This is my first poetry book.

About the Author

Isabelle went on to become a two time winner of the Walt Whitman Young Poets Award and was regional Spelling Bee champion representing Long Island, New York. Isabelle is now a middle school scholar, but during her grade school years she loved to write poetry. She enjoyed the art and recognizes that she did not have any commercial enthusiasm for the process. She is now more focused on writing short stories, but has yielded to the suggestions of her teachers; and wants to publish a compilation of the first editions from the body of award winning work which she produced during the third through seventh grades. She is currently a middle school senior working on a treatise of short stories.
