Synopsis
First published in 1986 and just as fresh and relevant today, this widely acclaimed, child-friendly poetry anthology is now being reissued with a striking new jacket. In his introduction to this book Jim Trelease, bestselling author of The Read-Aloud Handbook , writes, "No one better recognizes the essence of the child-poetry connection than poet and anthologist Jack Prelutsky. . . . Here are more than 200 little poems to feed little people with little attention spans to help both grow. Marc Brown's inviting illustrations add a visual dimension to the poems, which further engage young imaginations." The poems are by 119 of the best-known poets of the 20th century. This book has been selected as a Common Core State Standards Text Exemplar (Grades K-1, Poetry) in Appendix B.

  • Wonderful book of poems for children

    This is a great book to read to young children. The illustrations are cute, fun to look at. The poems are lovely. They are fairly short so they'd be good for children to memorize. Ex: A Modern Dragon A train is a dragon tat roars through the dark. He wriggles his tail as he sends up a spark. He pierces the night with his one yellow eye, And all the earth trembles when he rushes by. By Rowena Bennett Raindrops How brave a ladybug must be! Each drop of rain is big as she. Can you imagine what you'd do if raindrops fell as big as you? By Aileen Fisher This is just a sampling ... There are 88 pages of these cute poems ... With lots of pictures on each page. I think older children would enjoy reading this book all by themselves. I highly recommend this book.
