Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Children's First Book of Poetry The teacher can help, of course. Sometimes, not al ways, she can make comments that lend light and feeling. Often, but not always, she can help by reading aloud. Sometimes, where necessary, she can ask questions to provoke thought and bring out the meaning. Some times she should simply tell the meaning. Always her function is to stimulate, suggest, guide, but not to obstruct the sunlight of the poet's genius; There should be much reading aloud by the pupils. Remembering that, being poetry, it is rhythmic utter-i ance, they should read it so; not singsong fashion, nor yet in the bald and unrhythmic fashion of prose.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems for Children It was such a pretty nest, and in such a pretty place, I must tell you about it. One lovely afternoon in May I had been wandering up and down, through rocky gorges, by little swampy bits of ground, and on the tops of windy headlands, looking for flowers, and had found many: large blue violets, the like of which you never saw; white violets, too, creamy and fragrant; gentle little houstonias; gay and dancing erythroniums; and wind flowers delicately tinted, blue, straw-color, pink, and purple. I never found such in the mainland valleys. The salt air of the sea deepens the colors of all flowers. I stopped by a swamp which the recent rains had filled and turned into a little lake. Light green iris-leaves cut the water like sharp and slender swords, and, in the low sunshine that streamed across, threw long shadows over the shining surface. Some blackbirds were calling sweetly in a clump of bushes, and song-sparrows sung as if they had but one hour in which to crowd the whole rapture of the spring.
