The bestselling author of Under the Tuscan Sun brings poetryout of the classroom and into the homes of everyday readers. Before she fell in love with Tuscany, Frances Mayes fell in love with verse. After publishing five books of poetry and teaching creative writing for more than twenty-five years, Mayes is no stranger to the subject. In The Discovery of Poetry, an accessible field guide to reading and writing poetry, she shares her passion with readers. Beginning with basic terminology and techniques, from texture and sound to rhyme and repetition, Mayes shows how focusing on one aspect of a poem can help you to better understand, appreciate, and enjoy the reading and writing experience. In addition to many creative and helpful composition ideas, following each lyrical and lively discussion is a thoughtful selection of poems. With its wonderful anthology from Shakespeare to Jamaica Kinkaid, The Discovery of Poetry is an insightful, invaluable guide to what Mayes calls the natural pleasures of language-a happiness we were born to have.

Tight Top Loaders
Size: 200 Hard Sleeves+200 Soft Sleeves
Fine cases, just a little tight trying to put cards in. Seller acknowledged and gave his advice to alleviate the matter. And offered a partial refund for the trouble. Very much appreciated, this is a great seller and will order from them again.

Great quality products. Perfect wiggle room for Pokemon cards
Size: 1000 Hard Sleeves+1000 Soft Sleeves
Have to say this is a top 3 quality of toploader plus sleeves combination. I’m switching out my collection to this right here. The sleeves perfectly fit Pokemon cards and don’t leave too much room at the top which I love

Good product, value is present but could use better packing
Size: 100 Hard Sleeves+100 Soft Sleeves
These were a great alternative for cards I was giving to a donation (not for money nor profit but still deserved protection). I forgot what the order was initially as everything comes in the one box; seems to be the original toploader box. I mention this because it is overstuffed and had tape around the entire box three times over; even then there were torn box corners. It didn't effect the top loaders as so far mine don't look scratched nor any more distorted than premium, known brands I've bought plenty of times. The penny sleeves weren't counted and I've only used a few but they didn't pop open on both ends nor were they oddly sized. I'd also say I didn't buy this for the gloves but mine only had one in it and tried it on just because and it fit pretty accurately- but I am a petite female with small hands so if you aren't (I wouldn't dare presume size nor gender demographics) but they'd be too small for someone who wears a men's or women's large or XL. Then again they could vary with purchase and I got lucky with size but unlucky with quantity. Overall this is the better value set I've seen and bought that has quality product and delivers on the provided claims; I would've preferred different packaging so I could order as a gift to send as well. Pictures to follow soon.
