One Hundred Years of Poetry for Children by Michael Harrison
This is a comprehensive celebration of 100 years of poetry written for children. The 20th century has seen an explosion in the number of poets writing for children, and in the amount of accessible poetry available to them. This collection is arranged by theme, and includes one poem by each of the writers. From Rudyard Kipling to Charles Causley, from Ogden Nash to Michael Rosen, the style and subject matter of the poetry ranges dramatically. There are familiar, famous poems, and some less well-known ones here, grouped together under such headings as childhood, war, animals and mystery. Michael Harrison and Christopher Stuart-Clark have brought together in this book a selection from 100 years of poetry from all over the English-speaking world.| SKU | Unavailable |
