These Small Stones Poems selected by Norma Farber and Myra Cohn Livingston*

I bought this used copy at our library's book sale and am so glad that I own this gem!  These ladies, Ms Farber and Ms. Livingston, selected a wonderful collection of unique poems by a variety of poets.  Although these poems were collected with children in mind, they included "adult" sophisticated poets too (e.e. cummings, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Lord Alfred Tennyson).  The poems also span many countries and time periods (Japanese, Armenian, Spanish).
I love the variety this anthology offers. 
All the poems share the same theme- small items.
*Highly recommend.
-I own this book.
