Summary: A great book!
Comment: I pulled this book off the shelf in our house and was suprised how much i enjoyed it! I actually read it for an English porject for 10th grade. I wish there were some other reviews of this book that were more critical because that's what i needed for the project...too bad, it is too good a book to say anything bad about it!!

Rating: 5
Summary: Highly Recommended For Out Loud Reading
Comment: In 1972, I chose several poems from Reflections... for a poetry anthology I compiled as a project for my Children's Literature course. This course was an elective course I took while earning my B.A. in teaching. For many years, this book was part of my classroom. Yesterday, I read "Crossing" by Philip Booth (about watching a train at a railroad crossing) from that book at a variety show at my church. Today, four people requested the title of the book I read that poem from! For 30 years, I have recommended this book -- I should get a commission on the number of copies I have sold! Makes a wonderful birthday, holiday, etc. gift for any child.

Summary: Reflections on the gift of a fantastic collection of poetry
Comment: This colection is one that every poetry lover should purchase, the poems are strickingly simple and moving, they are ones that have stuck in my head for a long long time. I read this book cover to cover during an 8th form poetry project and fell in love with it. It goes on my list of fantastic poetry. There are many metaphores and similies in it that have stuck in my mind for the past year since I read this book (the concept of an apartment building as a filing cabenit of people's lives, the poem about the plums that is so simple yet so complex in its simplicity and the final poems line of "when unicorns were still possible" have all stuck with me for the past 11 months as I trad through life without this book before rediscovering it.) I hope that everyone gets a chance to read this book.
Peace to you
