5.0 out of 5 stars
Classic children's poetry, interesting for all ages,
This review is from: The Oxford Book of Children's Verse (Oxford Books of Verse) (Paperback)
My kids and I love these poems. We read one together each day, and then my kids draw a picture of what the poem means to them. This book is wonderful for vocabulary development. The kids get exposure to an extremely wide variety of authors, which I believe is far beyond what they would be exposed to in most elementary schools (either public or private). There is so much variety in the poetry selections. No matter what your child's interests, this book has something for everyone. This is a fantastic book: great for home schooling families or for anyone who wants to enrich their child's education. These poems are all available free online, but most kids will prefer the format of the book.
