A picture book version of poet Robert Frost’s beloved and often-quoted poem. The verse blends the seen with the imagined; the illustrations, a series of paintings, complement and extend the verse.

A lovely introduction to poetry for young readers, but those who appreciate the beauty of this verse will find much to appreciate in the blending of words and pictures that work together to create a memorable reading experience.

Highly recommended. ( )

Picked this up at a sale today- I can't resist this book. The illustrations mesh so beautifully with the words, and it's one of my favorite Frost poems. I like to have multiple copies of this one on hand to give away to any kid who happens within my grasp. ( )

It makes my mommy very happy that I love this "poetree" so much. I love trees, and I love the relaxing cadence of Robert Frost's words. I like to look at the murky pictures and talk about them. I like to think about little boys swinging on trees. ( )
