Children instinctively love poetry, with its appealing mixture of rhythm and rhyme. And Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, with his suspenseful narrative verse, deceptively simple structure, and powerful images of 19thcentury United States, makes an especially suitable subject for the critically acclaimed Poetry for Young People series. Brilliant, specially commissioned artwork brings to life all the atmosphere, drama, and emotion of his writing: the vital energy of 'The Village Blacksmith,' the urgency of 'Paul Revere's Ride,' and the sorrow of 'The Wreck of the Hesperus.' An opening essay tells of Longfellow's life: his childhood in Maine, his family history (the Longfellows played a major role in New England politics), his success as a professor of foreign languages, and his oftentragic personal life. More than just a biography, it reveals the inspiration for many of Longfellow's most popular works. Nearly 30 poems appear, most in their entirety, including 'The Arrow and the Song,' 'The Rainy Day,' 'Woods in Winter,' 'The Forest Primeval' (from 'Evangeline'), 'Hiawatha's Childhood' (from 'Song of Hiawatha'), 'A Psalm of Life,' and the abolitionist 'The Witnesses.' As always in this series, supplementary word definitions give children the knowledge they need to fully understand the poems. 48 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 10.
