What Have You Lost? is a unique book of poetry. Naomi Shihab Nye, an excellent poet herself, has selected various poems from a diverse array of poets covering different forms of loss. The book contains poems that cover losing everything from a loved one to a sweater, and everything in between. I enjoyed many of the poems in this book, eventhough poetry is not my favorite type of leisurely reading. I think that some teens would enjoy reading this book especially to help them cope with the various types of loss in their own lives.
