**Now here's a honey- another Big Golden Book Special -- a good one. Excellent selection of 100 well known poems for children, enlivened by Gertrude Elliott's lush intricate lovely pictures, which add magic to each page. Lear, Riley, Rose Fyleman, Christina Rossetti, Rachiel Field, Laura Richards, Stevenson, de la Mare, Eugene Field, Eleanor Farjeon, Dorothy Aldis, Ogden Nash, Lewis Carroll, Nancy Byrd Turner -- and many others, a wholesome collection of poems every child should know and some newcomers that have won their measure of popularity. Like Nursery Rhymes in the best tradition, there are pictures for every poem. An excellent first poetry book.
