HARTFORD — Marie Rose Robertson has recently been notified that her poem, “Big Brother,” was chosen for publication in the Anthology of Poetry by Young Americans.

The anthology provides a forum through which selected young authors can see their work and the work of other students published in an actual book. Students in grades K-12 write the poems selected for publication. Submissions are received from young poets who live throughout the United States. Works are selected for publication based upon their originality, rhythmic sounds, rhymes and audience appeal.

Robertson is a sixth-grade student at Hartford Sumner Elementary and began writing poetry as a 7 year old.
