This is what it says, a volume I produced for my grandkids. It started because I like to read poetry to my grandchildren.
One of them told me all grandparents should do the same, so here's what you need. Do you remember these lines?
o Oh Captain, my Captain;
o In Xanadu did Kublai Khan;
o There was movement at the station;
o Yesterday upon a stair;
o Abou Ben Adhem;
o Seated one day at the Organ;
o In a rose red city, half as old as time.
Did you get them all? Would your grandchildren?
This is the third edition of a canonical collection of English verse that young people of all ages can benefit from encountering.
It is for grandparents to buy, and the selections are mainly intended for reading aloud: adult to child; child to child; child to adult. The poems are followed by brief notes on the poets, just in case.
