William Carlos Williams' poems are like pictures, full of visual images that youngsters will quickly grasp and enjoy. Thirtytwo of his finest verses, accompanied by gorgeous paintings that capture Williams' evocative references to nature and everyday life, grace this new title in the muchcelebrated Poetry for Young People series. Renowned scholar and professor Christopher MacGowan, who has edited several volumes of Williams' work, provides a fascinating biography of this poetdoctor as well as invaluable annotations that explain unfamiliar vocabulary. Exquisite paintings, by the distinguished artist Robert Crockett, make every page a treat to look at and truly illuminate the poems. Among the poems included here are 'Dawn,' with its lovely evocation of bird song and flight; 'Primrose,' a celebration of summer's joys; '10/30,' a witty verse that imitates the sounds of freight trains passing by the station near his home; and an excerpt from his famed booklength poem, 'Paterson.'Professor Christopher MacGowan is coeditor of Volume I of The Collected Poems of William Carlos Williams, and editor of Volume II and other books of Williams's poetry. He is also the author of articles on Sherwood Anderson, Denise Levertov, and Vladimir Nabokov. Professor MacGowan is the Chair of the English department at The College of William and Mary.Robert Crockett has illustrated numerous books, magazine articles, and advertising pieces. Among his many awards are 11 gold and silver medals from the San Francisco Society of Illustrators (of which he was past president). His paintings regularly show in the New York Society of Illustrators Annual Exhibit.
