The Father Goose Treasury of Poetry
ISBN: 9780764365690
Author: Charles Ghigna Publisher: Schiffer Books
Poetry is magic! In this stunningly illustrated treasury, Charles Ghigna, Father Goose (R), has compiled 101 of his best, most-beloved children's poems to share with young readers as a first introduction to the joy of language and to the enchanted world of books. His poetry's lilting rhythms and rhymes, and its short, simple sentences and clever repetition of key words and phrases he hopes will start children's eyes, minds, and hearts dancing along the rhythmical lines of poetry and into a lifelong love of lyrical language. Ideal bedtime story for young families; Provides teachers and librarians with the perfect read-aloud book of poems to use in the classroom and the library; Promotes language and literacy. Young readers and their families will gain an understanding of the wonder and joy of poetry, as well as a positive look at the natural world around them. In the words of Charles Ghigna, "It is the joyous power of poetry that turns listeners into readers and readers into writers."
