Children's Poems/Silverstein & Stevenson
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares children's poems by these two poets. Being able to recreate the magic and joy of childhood and to do it from the child's perspective is a rare gift that few poets have exhibited. Two poets who manage to accomplish this feat are Shel Silverstein and nineteenth century author Robert Louis Stevenson. Examination of a representative poem demonstrates not only the technical virtuosity of each poet, but also the fact that each man managed to capture a child's narrative voice without talking down to their young readers, but rather showing empathy and understanding of a child's world. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Coleridge’s term “habituate to the Vast” can serve as s single
phrase that encompasses the importance of fantasy and imagination
in a child’s world. It allows them to become accustomed to the
fact that realms exist around them that they can imagine anything
they might choose to about those realms. Bibliography lists 4
sources.
