Kingdom of Verse

This charming introduction to the world of rhyming verse takes children on a journey through the wild and wondrous landscape of the English language, guided by such greats as Lewis Carroll, Emily Dickinson, John Milton, Rudyard Kipling, and Shakespeare, spanning from nursery rhymes to the 1600s to the early 20th century. The lively, distinctive illustrations open the imaginative treasure trove of our collective poetic heritage for children of the 21st century and beyond.

Helps kids develop an ear for language and rhythm. Beautiful illustrations from Owen Cyclops.
