Poetry Friday is hosted today by Today's Little Ditty.
For Poetry Friday -- "Edward Lear" edited by Edward Mendelson and
illustrated by Laura Huliska-Beith.
Mendelson
offers readers a thoughtful introduction to Edward Lear and his poetry. Humorous limericks and more serious longer works
provide a balanced experience in this anthology which is part of the Poetry for
Young People series.
Huliska-Beith's energetic and
colorful artwork reflects the spirit of Lear's verses.
Mendelson's notes provide
context and his definitions for unfamiliar vocabulary enable readers to
successfully access the various works.
