Talking to the Sun: An Illustrated Anthology of… di Kenneth Koch

This is a collection of poems for young children that features beautiful famous artwork. I thought that this book was very lovely and a great book to introduce younger children into different genres including poetry! I thought that the poems were unique and heartfelt, and I thought that the artwork that was included helped to illustrate the poems.

Making Your Own Days: The Pleasures of Reading and… di Kenneth Koch

I appreciated the novel approach of the author who distinguished poetry as a separate language in his discussion of the nature of poetry. His clear prose and use of examples from great poems helped make this a rich source for both those new to poetry and more experienced poetry lovers.
