The Oxford Book of Poetry for Children by Edward Blishen

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.
Blishen, Edward: - Edward Blishen won the Carnegie Medal with Leon Garfield for the God Beneath the Sea (1970). For Kingfisher he has compiled several collections in the Treasury of Stories series and Children's Classics to Read Aloud.
