An appreciation of poetry grows out of understanding. Enjoying Poetry encourages students to examine poems critically and thoughtfully, to see what the poet is driving at, and to consider how well he or she is saying it. This book combines discussion and writing, examines ideas and feelings, and develops an appreciation of the poetry of others whilst allowing for the student to try his or her own hand at creating poetry.Contents include:Our landSimiles and metaphorsPeopleSound - wordsAni
