These classic poems combine catchy, memorable rhymes with vivid word pictures to offer an imaginative feast for children. A variety of readers bring the poetry to life, resulting in a wonderfully energetic and lively collection.

Many first encounters with great poems could be made even more satisfying and memorable given the chance to add original color to the poetic event. Here is the chance — 17 classic poems by 11 distinguished poets, suggestively embellished for coloring by Susan Gaber. A total of 40 drawings complement poems by Christina Rossetti, Emily Dickinson, Lewis Carroll, Gelett Burgess, H. W. Longfellow, Edward Lear, Leigh Hunt, Eugene Field, Hughes Mearns, and two anonymous bards. Few children early exposed to them ever forget Who Has Seen the Wind or Wynken, Blynken and Nod; all can now gild and preserve their memories in almost any coloring medium, in this handsome, durable coloring book.

I believe Jesus Christ, My Lord and Savior, put it in my heart to write these poems and have them published.“The Purring Kitty” poem is about our family cat, Zarlakit, even though she is a full-grown cat now. I have always had cats when I was growing up, but I never had a cat that purred all the time. Sometimes she purrs very loudly. God brought her into our life and we enjoy her company each and every day.I hope my young readers and their families will find these poems both enjoyable and inspirational.To God Be The Glory.
