Abstract
In the first section of his article, Michael Benton notes the absence of pieces about poetry in this and most other publications claiming a concern for children's literature. It is an omission the editors ofCle have themselves regretted, and in this issue Mr Benton's article is followed by a contribution from Leonard Clark, a poet himself and a considerable influence for many years as one of Her Majesty's Inspectorate in encouraging the enjoyment of poetry in schools in the U.K. Cle will have, in a forthcoming issue, an article by the poet Michael Rosen, and there is also in preparation, for early publication, a checklist of work by American poets. The Editors would very much welcome further contributions discussing the work of children's poets and the reading and teaching of poetry in schools, in the form of letters or articles.
