A RICH ANTHOLOGY, May 19, 2001
This review is from: Kipling: Victorian Balladeer (Illustrated Poetry Anthology Series) (Library Binding)
Adults and children will love this illustrated anthology of Kipling's best-loved versed. Many of us are well acquainted with Kipling's prose works that have given readers great joy throughout the years. In this particular work we encounter Kipling the poet whose verse was profound enough to attract the attention of both young and old.
Allow yourself to savor the wisdom from Sussex, 1902 and be inspired with his memorable poem If. Chant along with your children "The Law of the Jungle" and become enriched by its music. Kipling is a great balladeer of the the english language.
This anthology is illustrated with a selection of paintings that were inspired by his poetry. They provide a rich complement to this collection. I highly recommend this edition as gift to give to poetry lovers and to inspire others as they reflect upon their life's journey. It is certainly a "must have" in your poetry library.
