Spaceways: An Anthology of Space Poetry

by John L. Foster (Editor)

Grade 5-8 A collection of 20th-Century poetry with an astronomical theme, most of it appearing here for the first time. Subjects cover a wide range, from counting stars to finding alien artifacts, from hard science fiction to nursery rhymes, and the illustrations (all original) follow suit; impressionistic stellar vistas change to pulp-cover Bug-Eyed Monsters with the flip of a few pages.

Winner of the 1987 Junior Education poetry anthology of the year award.

128 pages, Hardcover
