Aptly referred to as the children's poet, Longfellow's poems, each a mini-adventure story, have been cherished by young readers and listeners through the years. Now a new generation can read and enjoy some of America's most often recited poetry. This new issue of the original, containing eight of Longfellow's most popular poems, is beautifully illustrated by some of the best-known artists of the late nineteenth century. Ages 8 and up.
