{"product_id":"9781402709265","title":"Poetry for Young People: Animal Poems","description":"The writers include Blake, Dickinson, Tennyson, Yeats, Wordsworth, and Keats. The captivating paintings by Simona Mulazanni make every page a delight. And the subject—animals, big and small, wild and tame— has an irresistible appeal to children. William Blake’s “The Tyger” burns bright in the lush image that accompanies the verse. Hillaire Belloc pays tribute to an elephant in a short, witty stanza accompanied by an adorable picture of the creature sitting on a small wood stool. Among the other poems are Marianne Moore’s “A Jellyfish” and Edward Lear’s charming, songlike “The Owl and the Pussycat.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Selection of Scholastic Book Clubs.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Hollander\u003c\/b\u003e has written \u003ci\u003eA Crackling of Thorns\u003c\/i\u003e (chosen by W.
