Synopsis
Here are the final two volumes in John Foster's new series of poetry anthologies. Using the same winning formula that made his first series such a success, these beautifully illustrated books present the best of what's new in poetry, carefully chosen for children between the ages of ten and
thirteen. Many of the poems were written especially for these volumes, and among the poets included are Roald Dahl, Grace Nichols, Judith Viorst, Jack Prelutsky, David McCord.
A variety of themes with strong associations for children are encompassed: from the light-hearted (Vampires, Pets, and Holidays) to the provocative (One-Parent Families, Technology, and War). The books are also liberally peppered with humor and zaniness--a winning formula with any subject matter.
Drawings, cartoons and photographs--most of them in full color--draw attention to every page.
