Book excerpt: In this enchanting and comprehensive collection, the lullabies we all were rocked to sleep with, such as “Rock-a-Bye Baby” and “Hush Little Baby, Don’t You Cry,” mingle with traditional lullabies from around the world. Here are beautiful lyrics to sing or read to little ones, from Shakespeare’s lullaby for the fairy queen, Titania, to Brahms’s “Lullaby”; and from Gershwin’s “Summertime” to Langston Hughes’s lovely lullaby for a “night black baby.” Here, too, are poems for children that range from tender to nonsensical, from quiet to raucous–from Walter de la Mare to T. S. Eliot to Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, and Ogden Nash. Whether the intent is to soothe or to amuse, there’s something here for every mood, every child, and the child in every adult. A delightful, gift-perfect collection.

Download or read book Come the Slumberless To the Land of Nod written by Traci Brimhall and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written during the trial for a close friend’s murder, Come the Slumberless to the Land of Nod exposes that the whimsical, horrible, and absurd all sit together. In this ambitious fourth collection, Traci Brimhall corresponds with the urges of life and death within herself as she lives through a series of impossibilities: the sentencing of her friend’s murderers, the birth of her child, the death of her mother, divorce, a trip sailing through the Arctic. In lullaby, lyric essay, and always with brutal sincerity, Brimhall examines how beauty and terror live right alongside each other––much like how Nod is both a fictional dreamscape and the place where Cain is exiled for murdering Abel. By plucking at the tensions between life and death, love and hate, truth and obscurity, Brimhall finds what it is that ties opposing themes together; how love and loss are married in grief. Like Eve thrust from Eden, Brimhall is tasked with finding meaning in a world defined by its cruelty. Unrelenting, incisive, and tender, these poems expose beauty in the grotesque and argue that the effort to be good always outweighs the desire to succumb to what is easy.

Download or read book Selected Poems of Gabriela Mistral written by Gabriela Mistral and published by Baltimore : Published for the Library of Congress by the Johns Hopkins Press. This book was released on 1971 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The first Nobel Prize in literature to be awarded to a Latin American writer went to the Chilean poet Gabriela Mistral. Famous and beloved during her lifetime all over Latin America and in Europe, Mistral has never been known in North America as she deserves to be. The reputation of her more flamboyant and accessible friend and countryman Pablo Neruda has overshadowed hers, and she has been officially sentimentalized into a 'poetess' of children and motherhood. Translations, and even selections of her work in Spanish, have tended to underplay the darkness, the strangeness, and the raging intensity of her poems of grief and pain, the yearning power of her evocations of the Chilean landscape, the stark music of her Round Dances, the visionary splendor of her Hymns of America. During her lifetime Mistral published four books: Desolation, Tenderness, Clearcut, and Winepress. These are included in the 'Complete' Nobel edition published in Madrid; the Poem of Chile, her last book, was printed years after her death. Le Guin includes poems from all five books in this volume, with particular emphasis on the later work. The intelligence and passion of Le Guin's selection and translation will finally allow people in the North to hear the originality, power, purity, and intransigence of this great American voice"--Publisher

A collection of lullabies and bedtime poems for little ones, including a humorous counting rhyme.Themes: Stories in rhyme, bedtime & dreams, Counting & numbers, lullabiesReviews: "A touching collection to help make bedtime a favourite part of your child's day and introduce them to a lifelong love of reading." Adrienne T. O'Connell, teacher, B.A., Grad. Dip. Ed., taught indigenous classrooms in the outback to multicultural city classrooms.As an educator, I know the importance of reading rhyme for young children. The earlier the exposure, the more rapid the benefits for the child by expanding their exposure to vocabulary. This is especially important by the age of three years old. Rhyme also involves words of similar sound but with different meanings which promotes cognitive growth. Lullabies and poems also provide physical comfort to a growing child that helps them settle down and relax. "The Boat to Lullaby Bay" is a wonderful introduction to the world of poems and lullabies with beautiful illustrations that are sure to delight parents and children. Jan Clifton Watford, retired teacher, with a BVA degree in art and art Education, and MATL, masters degree in Integrating Technology in the classroom and certification in Art, Early Childhood education and Gifted education
