Step Lightly: Poems for the Journey

(4) YA Despite the inclusion of some excellent (adult) poetry, this anthology has only the most tenuous of arrangements to make it cohere. As Willard acknowledges in an introduction, the book consists of poems that give her "a special kind of pleasure." The poems are mostly short but sophisticated; that and the arbitrary nature of the selection will limit the readership.
