“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.“ - W.B. Yeats

This poetry book shares a wide range of classic and modern poems. It teaches children how to memorize poems that will stick with them forever.

Great read and collection of poems! I love the wide range of poems in this story!

“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic.”

“Poems to Learn by Heart“ encourages children to memorize and share poetry, helping them connect with others through words. It‘s a reminder of the beauty of language and the joy of sharing stories that matter.

This collection, selected by Caroline Kennedy, features classic and contemporary poems for children that are easy to remember and recite, covering themes from friendship and family to nature and adventure.

A gift from the lovely @Elizabeth2 , this anthology is wonderful. And the paintings leave me speechless 😶
I am comforted by reading new-to-me poems by many of my favorite authors. I recommend this book to anyone who treasures poetry 💗

I was inspired by @TobeyTheScavengerMonk to share the poem we memorized this week for School of S‘moores. I particularly like Ellie‘s illustration. #schoolofsmoores

Here is this morning's poem from Poems to Learn By Heart by Caroline Kennedy. I absolutely ADORE this book and there is a different poem for everything. The illustrations by Jon Muth are stunning. #poetry #mornings

It's still tiny, but I tried to fit a close-up into a square, @Cinfhen ! Isn't this a fun little poem?

The fairy unit study has commenced! This poem about garden fairies by Rose Fyleman is so sweet and inspiring to my little fairy queen and even to her skeptical older sister. 😊
