Many first encounters with great poems could be made even more satisfying and memorable given the chance to add original colour to the poetic event. Here is the chance - 17 classic poems by 11 distinguished poets, suggestively embellished for colouring by Susan Gaber. A total of 40 drawings complement poems by Christina Rossetti, Emily Dickinson, Lewis Carroll, Gelett Burgess, H. W. Longfellow, Edward Lear, Leigh Hunt, Eugene Field, Hughes Mearns, and two anonymous bards. Few children early exposed to them ever forget Who Has Seen the Wind or Wynken, Blynken and Nod; all can now gild and preserve their memories in almost any colouring medium, in this handsome, durable colouring book.
