The Everyman Anthology of Poetry for Children is a treasury of great poems chosenfor the sheer pleasure theyoffer to readers of all ages. Compiler Gillian Avery's aim was to avoid condescending to children and"to assemble a collection of poems that the owner will not outgrow." With that in mind, she has included very few works that were written solely for a young audience. The more than 250 pieces gathered hererange from ballads to epics, from inspired nonsense to memorable reflections on love and death. A wide variety of poets grace these pages, from Mother Goose to Shakespeare, from Emily Dickinson to Noel Coward, from Robert Frost toOgden Nash. Coleridge's "Kubla Khan" and Rosetti's "Goblin Market" will enchant young readers as much as T. S. Eliot's "The Naming of Cats" and Lewis Carroll's "The Mock-Turtle's Song" will entertain them. Adorned with engravings by theeighteenth-century artistThomas Bewick, this collection belongs in every family's library.
