  A repeat of the formula which made Poem for the Day such a well-loved favourite whose popularity and sales just go on and on. Poem for the Day Two has one page for each day of the year. On each page is a poem, with brief additional material about the poem or the poet, giving added charm and interest - sometimes biographical, sometimes anecdotal, sometimes explanatory, sometimes historical. There are 366 poems (one for each day of the year, and one for leap years), to delight and inspire - and learn by heart, chosen for their magic and memorability. The poems are varied: old and contemporary, well-known and new, and with a completely different selection from the first volume.

  This is a new anthology of well-loved poems, old and new. They are chosen for their narrative and their rhythm, as one of the ideas behind the anthology is that the poems can be learned by heart. There is one poem for each day of the year, framed by entertaining snippets of information - sometimes about the poet, sometimes about the poem, sometimes about the date.
