Title: Miracles
Description: *Miracles* is the first collection of its kind - nearly 200 poems written by English-speaking children around the world. It is a revelation of the excitement, wonder, and rich imaginative power of children. It is an anthology to be read *as poetry* - not as a sampling of precociousness. 
Here are authentic and natural voices of children - their unusual, striking turns of phrase, their direct, uninhibited expressions of feelings, their mingling of fantasy and realism, their ability to see the world of nature, animals and men with an exhilarating and often powerful clarity and emotion.
The writers are all between 5 and 13 and come from an enormous variety of backgrounds - from the United States, New Zealand, Ireland, Kenya, Uganda, Canada, England, Australia, India and the Philippines. But they have one thing in common: they are all children - no different from those we see every day jumping, singing, yelling, discovering - who, for the brief moment of a poem, have spoken with the intensity, vision and artistry of the poet.
