Providing a short introduction to the life and work of 13 of the best-known classic poets from around the world, this book includes works by Blake, A.A. Milne, Tennyson and Frost. It introduces key poets whose contribution to literature is unquestioned and devotes one spread to each of them. Each includes a short biography, brief summaries and quotes from key works, and a short quote by a contemporary writier. A further six are briefly covered on the final spread. Illustrated with historical pictures and photos, this should be a useful source of information on classic poets that children will encounter in English classes and in their own reading.
