[LM_NET] TAR: Elem. Poetry Collection

[Katherine Stehman <katherine_stehman@L-SPIONEERS.ORG>]

Good Morning, All,
I just received a request from a 3rd grade teacher for "an appropriate poetry 
anthology . . .for guided reading."  Further description:  not too huge, nice 
selection of authors.

I've started pulling from our collection:

*         Fireflies at Night.  Singer.

*         Pocket Poems.  Katz.

*         An Illustrated Treasure of Read-Aloud Poems for Young People.   (may 
violate the "not too huge" request)

*         Poem Stew.  Cole.

*         Weather Report.  Yolen.

*         Alphabestiary.  Yolen.

*         Talking Like the Rain.  Kennedy.

What are your favorites?

Thanks in advance,
Kate
