The Bill Martin Jr. Big Book of Poetry
175 Pages

This anthology of poems consists of many different artists. There are nearly 200 poems in this collection and the topics of the poems include: animals, nature, around the world, people and places, school, feelings, food nonsense, and famous mother goose poems. The poems in this anthology are very short and easy to read. There are also brightly colored pictures on each page.

Personal Rating= 5

I like this book because it has a very wide variety of poems. The topics discussed are very broad so this book could be used to reach a wide variety of students. Also, I like this book because the poems are kid-friendly and enjoyable to read. They are spunky, upbeat, and inspirational. You get to see the world through a child’s eyes again.
