Description
William Blake, Kate Greenaway, Emily Dickinson: the writers in this charming anthology of 200 poemsfirst published in 1969are among literatures most beloved. And Gyo Fujikawas appealing illustrations depict children of all races sweetly interacting, as well as an engagingly rendered menagerie of animals and the natural world in all its wonderment. Among the verses that children will love are Henry Wadsworth Longfellows Christmas Bells, Lewis Carrolls The Melancholy Pig, and Eugene Fields Wynken, Blynken, and Nod, along with proverbs, limericks, nursery rhymes, and folk songs.
