This book taught me poetry!

My 80-year-old mom and I are sitting here looking for this book to buy for my nephew, her grandson, who is 9 years old. She learned her poetry with this "brillig" volume in the 1920's. I picked it up as a kid in the 50's, visiting places and learning things my teachers could only imagine in the Detroit public schools. So now, how do we find a copy for Ian? (Mom won't give up her volume for the little destructo machine.) Good reading!

This is the BEST poetry anthology that you can find...

This book is really helpful for school, and it has almost any poem imaginable, and it is really easy to search for a poem by subject. I really recommend using it...
