Ricardo Means Ybarra conducted<br />
a four-week poetry<br />
workshop in May and June<br />
for fifth-grade students at<br />

Students created original<br />
works of poetry each week.<br />
They were exposed to the<br />
writings of classic poets<br />
including William Shakespeare,<br />
Lewis Carroll and<br />
even Ybarra himself. Ybarra<br />
generously gave each<br />
student the gift of a personalized<br />
copy of his book,<br />
“Scratch and the Pirates of<br />
Paradise Cove.”<br />
The program was made<br />
possible by a generous grant<br />
from the City of Malibu, in<br />
