Description

"Offers 572 fine, funny, illuminating poems for children, a wealth of riches from the past and glittering gems from the present ... Arranged in fourteen thematic sections, this volume includes poems for every occasion throughout the year, every stage of growing up, every childhood passion or complaint. There are silvery-quiet nature poems and deliciously scary Halloween poems; poems full of mystery and poems that present stunning new ways of seeing everyday things. And above all there are laugh-out-loud, smile-to-yourself, share-with-a-friend funny poems, ranging from the classic nonsense of Lewis Carroll to the contemporary humor of Shel Silverstein"--

Synopsis: This deceptively slender volume contains a treasure-trove of poems. Each page is crammed with verse and illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Arnold Lobel. Everyone's favorite poems are complemented by fresh new voices and organized into such unusual themes as food, the city, spooky poems, and word play.

520 |a "Offers 572 fine, funny, illuminating poems for children, a wealth of riches from the past and glittering gems from the present ... Arranged in fourteen thematic sections, this volume includes poems for every occasion throughout the year, every stage of growing up, every childhood passion or complaint. There are silvery-quiet nature poems and deliciously scary Halloween poems; poems full of mystery and poems that present stunning new ways of seeing everyday things. And above all there are laugh-out-loud, smile-to-yourself, share-with-a-friend funny poems, ranging from the classic nonsense of Lewis Carroll to the contemporary humor of Shel Silverstein"--|c Dust cover.
5208 |a Synopsis: This deceptively slender volume contains a treasure-trove of poems. Each page is crammed with verse and illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Arnold Lobel. Everyone's favorite poems are complemented by fresh new voices and organized into such unusual themes as food, the city, spooky poems, and word play.
