      POEMS TEACHERS ASK FOR

      BOOK TWO

      Selected by READERS OF NORMAL INSTRUCTOR-PRIMARY PLANS

      CONTAINING MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED POEMS REQUESTED FOR PUBLICATION IN THAT MAGAZINE ON THE PAGE POEMS OUR READERS HAVE ASKED FOR

      INDEX OF TITLES

      (An Index of First Lines is given on pages 209-213)

      PREFACE

      In homely phrase, this is a sort of second helping of a dish that has pleased the taste of thousands. Our first collection of Poems Teachers Ask For was the response to a demand for such a book, and this present volume is the response to a demand for more. In Book One it was impracticable to use all of the many poems entitled to inclusion on the basis of their being desired. We are constantly in receipt of requests that certain selections be printed in NORMAL INSTRUCTOR-PRIMARY PLANS on the page Poems Our Readers Have Asked For. More than two hundred of these were chosen for Book One, and more than two hundred others, as much desired as those in the earlier volume, are included in Book Two.

      Because of copyright restrictions, we often have been unable to present, in magazine form, verse of large popular appeal. By special arrangement, a number of such poems were included in Book One of Poems Teachers Ask For, and many more are given in the pages that follow. Acknowledgment is made below to publishers and authors for courteous permission to reprint in this volume material which they control:

      THE CENTURY COMPANY—The Minuet, from Poems and Verses, by Mary Mapes Dodge.
