Charles Ghigna, Father Goose®, has compiled 101 of his best, most-beloved children's poems to share with young readers as a first introduction to the joy of language and to the enchanted world of books. His lilting rhythms and rhymes, short, simple sentences, and clever repetition of key words and phrases will start children's eyes, minds, and hearts dancing along the rhythmical lines of poetry and into a lifelong love of lyrical language. These Father Goose's poems cover themes of Home, Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, Animals, and Poetry, and include favorites such as: My Quiet TimeNovemberThe Cold Gray Days of WinterWinter CallsSnowfall in the CityThe Wild GeeseSummertimeThe AntThe CityWhat's A Poem? Young readers will gain an understanding of the wonder and joy of poetry, as well as a positive look at the natural world around them. In the words of Charles Ghigna, “It is the joyous power of poetry that turns listeners into readers and readers into writers.”
