This is my favorite collection of poems. My mother would read the poems to me when I was in middle school until I was 18 years old. I own the copy that was passed down from my mother's best friend to my mom then my mom to myself. It still holds my mom's bookmark that saves the page of my favorite poem she would read to me at night before bed.

Technically, you cannot rate this book because it is simply a gathering of poems written by great poets, however, we can rate the choice of poems which I found to be quite pleasing, I simply enjoyed reading it.
