Oxford Book of Poetry for Children Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Inspire young children to move from nursery rhymes to serious (but not solemn!) verse with this burgeoning collection that includes poems by Lewis Carroll, Christina Rossetti, Shakespeare, and many others. The illustrations reflect the vitality of the verses. Edward Blishen, who compiled the anthology, was a teacher for 15 years, and the volume has been spectacularly illustrated by Brian Wildsmith.

Synopsis:

At last, this favorite first introduction to poetry is available in a beautifully designed paperback. Introduce young children to poetry and help them make the leap from nursery rhymes to other kinds of verse--ballads, poems of mystery, delicate tales of fairies, songs of the sea--with a jingle or limerick mixed in here and there, and always an element of surprise.
