The Body Eclectic: An Anthology of Poems

Henry Holt
​

The first poetry anthology for teens to address one of their foremost concerns—the body.

“This well-organized anthology, casting a net to include Shakespeare and Shel Silverstein as well as Native American anthems… goes further than “singing the body electric.” It embraces and tries to understand the body “eclectic,” the parts and pieces so often forgotten, overlooked, or, embarrassingly, misunderstood.” School Library Journal
