A delightful, gift-perfect collection.
Download or read book The January Children written by Safia Elhillo and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The January Children depicts displacement and longing while also questioning accepted truths about geography, history, nationhood, and home. The poems mythologize family histories until they break open, using them to explore aspects of Sudan's history of colonial occupation, dictatorship, and diaspora. Several of the poems speak to the late Egyptian singer Abdelhalim Hafez, who addressed many of his songs to the asmarani--an Arabic term of endearment for a brown-skinned or dark-skinned person. Elhillo explores Arabness and Africanness and the tensions generated by a hyphenated identity in those two worlds.

Download or read book One Thousand Poems for Children written by Roger Ingpen and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Thousand Poems for Children: A New Choice of the Best Verse Old New As perhaps nothing leaves a more lasting impression on the memory than the poems one learns in childhood, it is important that children should be provided with poetry that is both pleasant to read and profitable to remember, and it is to meet these two needs that the present volume has been prepared. In compiling the work, the two objects which have primarily been kept in mind are the claim of poetry and the demand of the children; but, since the collection is intended chiefly for the pleasure of our boys and girls, the demand of the children has been considered first. For this reason, most of the old favorites which, because of their very familiarity, deserve a place in all collections of children's verse, have been selected, together with a generous quantity of nursery rhymes; but it has been deemed wise also to include the most desirable specimens of recent juvenile poetry. The form of verse that first appeals to the young is that of a mere pleasing repetition of sound and rhythm without regard to meaning; but this soon gives way to the little story, quite simple and simply told, it is true, but which nevertheless conveys an idea. The story continues to hold its place in the affection of the child until the period of youth is reached, when abstract subjects in poetry begin to offer attraction, and a child cannot be said really to care for poetry in the true sense until this time arrives.
