1: A Classic
I remember this book from when I was young. Now I share it with my children, and always buy it for baby gifts. A must to any childs library.

2: A wonderful book
As parents of a three-year-old, some of our happiest recent moments have been reading to him from this wonderful collection of poems, which range from Colonial works to Emily Dickenson to Richard Wilbur. Sure, much of it is beyond him now, but he likes the rhythm and rhymes he hears--and he even knows to request "Casey at the Bat." We're pretty sure we're going to get a lot of enjoyable use out of this book in years to come.

3: Excellent book of quality poems for schoolage children
This book is for anyone -- parents, educators, or students -- looking for an excellent anthology of high quality poetry for older schoolage children. Several steps beyond the nursery rhyme, it contains many works by famous poets which are readily accessible to chldren in elementary and middle school. This is one you will keep coming back to again and again!! (As a teacher, I find in preferrable to most of the textbook anthologies available in classrooms.)
