Language development is significantly enriched by exposure to good poetry. This book is an important resource because it provides in one volume many poems that concern noble actions or ideas presented in beautiful patterns of sound. This book contains all the poems recommended in Berquist's best-selling Designing Your Classical Curriculum . The extensive selection includes poems by Robert Louis Stevenson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Robert Browning, William Shakespeare, G.K. Chesterton, William Butler Yeats, Robert Frost, and many others. There are three indices to help locate specific poems. This book also includes dictation selections that are useful tools in the development of the child's writing ability, as well as study questions and answers for each poem. Review: Important book!! It's a must have! - Poetry is SO important and often gets neglected in curriculum-while either homeschooling or in brick and mortar schools . This book has been a staple in our home for over 20 years. My adult children love that they have memorized poems and passages of Shakespeare, etc. They really appreciate it now. EASY TO USE. VERY GOOD CURRICULUM FOR KINDERGARTEN THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. COMPREHENSIVE. I can't say enough good things about Laura Berquist and her contributions to education! Use this book and Enjoy! Review: A literary treasure for homeschoolers - As a homeschooling parent who wishes to emphasize a more classical education, I am so very happy with this book. The featured poems are classics of the Western canon, age-appropriate, and fun to learn. The book is divided into age-appropriate sections, which I greatly appreciated. Too many books of this type will throw in children's poetry with epics and sonnets; Ms. Berquist's collection gets progressively older and more challenging as one advances through the book. My six- and four-year-old now recite various Robert Louis Stevenson poems from memory, as well as Psalm 23, Psalm 100, and "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost. It's amazing and gratifying to see them take so quickly to such beautiful literature. I highly recommend this book for any homeschoolers in your life. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #40,376 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #41 in Poetry Anthologies (Books) #97 in Religious Poetry (Books) #124 in European Poetry (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 380 Reviews | ## Images ![The Harp and Laurel Wreath: Poetry and Dictation for the Classical Curriculum - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617ENdiMdrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important book!!
