'Ariel' by Sylvia Plath
Advantages: Easy to read Disadvantages: too thoughtful and melancholy for some
I really enjoyed reading this collection of poetry. Plath has a graphic imagination evident in poems such as 'Cut' and her imagery is at times explicit but so apt. 'Morning song' is yet another beautiful poem. The title plays upon the two seperate meanings of 'morning' and 'mourning'. Describing a mother's feelings after birth, Plath describes her as 'cow heavy' using the image of the lactating mother and effortlessly transferring it to the accurate ... ...Plath's poetry is as intriguing as her life. People might suggest her poetry is depressing and such but i urge you to read it. She has such a way with words. Also i would highly recommend reading 'The Bell Jar'. A fascinating insight into the world of insanity through the eyes of a young girl. ...

Advantages: great collection with loots of depth Disadvantages: none
...9 ‘Winter Trees’ by Sylvia Plath.
10 ‘The Colossus’ by Sylvia Plath.
11 ‘Crossing the Water’ by Sylvia Plath.

Review of Winter Trees - Sylvia Plath

British education and mental illness
Advantages: Complex points alluded to Disadvantages: Can be depressing
Strange title? Well: We have been studying the poetry of Plath and Jennings ... both suffered from mental illness and both allude to this quite heavily in their poetry. What are our teachers doing? 3 months away from exams and we are forced to study two lots of depressing, insanity encourageing poems ... which we aren't even going to be examined on! Don't get me wrong, Plath ... and Jennings ... as poets are really good writers and it is a shame ... ...Level text book. You have to enjoy leveled poetry to read work by either of these poets and must never take them at face value. They both are powerful women and they have a lot to say, they do this in a variety of complex ways!
My only recommendation is to read the works of Plath for yourself, but not when you are depressed or stressed and only in the summer!
Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy! ...

The back cover is also bright blue and again has lots of pictures covering it showing a variety of different things. Upon opening the book the first page has a lovely little space where your child can write their own name so people will know that the book ... ...of the book and the names of all the poems included. The book is split into 2 different sections the first being, HapolooKangaroo and the second, Higglety, Pigglety, Pop. Both of the sections have 20 poems in.
