Stories and Poems for Extremely Intelligent Children of All Ages is great! Everyone should have a copy of this, and especially those of you with kids. It is an anthology of 83 poems and 41 stories from all over the globe. All are very simple, pure, and fun to read, and they set up a great foundation for future "harder" works.

I picked this book up because Bloom (who edited this book) is one of my favorite critics and essayists. I've read the whole thing in two days, and it has opened my eyes on many things and gave me ammunitaion to perfect my own craft. It is a book for "Children of All Ages" - and its true: everyone will benefit from it.

BTW, this would also make a great gift if you have friends with kids :)
