I'm no connoisseur of art or poetry, so consider the source, but in my opinion this book has a few excellent poems, a few excellent works of art, and a lot of mundane of the same.

This is a collection of poems for young children that features beautiful famous artwork. I thought that this book was very lovely and a great book to introduce younger children into different genres including poetry! I thought that the poems were unique and heartfelt, and I thought that the artwork that was included helped to illustrate the poems.

ages 3-8 yrs old

Poems from various time periods and many countries are organized by theme and illustrated with reproductions of art works from the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
