Best Remembered Poems, edited and annotated by Martin Gardner, is an extensive collection of poetry that contains poems from 65 different poets. This collection contains as few as one, and as many as nine poems from each individual poet. From William Blake to Robert Frost to Rudyard Kipling to Edgar Allen Poe to Percy Bysshe Shelley, this collection has a wide range of views, language, and styles expressed through poetry.

I really liked reading this collection of poetry. Since there were so many different poets represented in the book, there was a diverse range of poetry, some of which I loved, and some of which I didn’t quite enjoy as much. In particular, a few of my favorite poems were Annabel Lee by Edgar Allen Poe, Trees by Joyce Kilmer, The House by the Side of the Road by Sam Walter Foss, and A Man Said to the Universe by Stephen Crane. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys poetry or wants to get into it more!
