ehidna [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1. The amount of words in poetry is less compared to prose and other literary pieces.

2. The rhythm produced from one line to another adds a natural flow to poetry.

3. The small chunks of words at a time helps to make the reading less threatening.

4. The white space left on the pages makes the reading breathable and less choking.

Explanation:

Jason Reynolds, an author explains that the reason why many young people are not being helped to overcome their fear of books is that the teachers and instructors still bombard them with voluminous books, thus adding to their fear. He compared it to a person scared of dogs still being confronted with a Pit Bull or other intimidating dogs.

To solve the problem, Reynolds explained that the less volume of words contained in Poetry can help instill a love for reading in the students. They can enjoy the rhythm created as they move from lines and stanzas. The small chunks of words also makes reading less intimidating.
