Editorial Review: Product Description: From the Great Poets series--exquisite small-format collections of classic poetry enhanced by full-color reproductions of period art, and readable, scholarly introductions. 12 full-color illustrations. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Poetry for Young People: Robert FrostBeautifully illustrated. I liked the separation of poems into seasons. I WAS disappointed that "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" was not included! Rating: - for all agesI'm a little surprised at the recommended age for this book.

"A Prayer in the Spring" talks about the end of winter and the beginning of spring. It tells about the dreariness of winter ... Read More: Rating: - Another "Poetry for Young People" Volume ExcelsThis title is another respectable addition to this artful series of books introducing young people (and others) to the work of beloved poets. The book opens with a short biography of Frost. I enjoyed it immensely - as a writer I was inspired to see that this Pulitzer Prize winner had to actually leave his home in order to write because at first, no one thought his work was high enough quality to publish. He gave up his farm to write. He first wrote his poetry at night, when the ... Read More: |
