Mastering Metaphor through Poetry
Judith W. Steinbergh

Uses examples of children's poetry to illustrate both the power of metaphor and the possibilities of poetry in the development of metaphor. Traces children's development in creation of metaphor from kindergarten through eighth grade. Looks at early demonstration of metaphor use and the expanded use of metaphor to describe complex concepts and relationships.
Language Arts, Vol. 76 No. 4, March 1999
