Compiled in an effort to present modern poetry in a way that would appeal to the young, Watermelon Pickle was long a standard in high school curricula,[2] and has been described as a classic.[3] The anthology consists of 114 poems, including ones by Ezra Pound, Edna St. Vincent Millay and E. E. Cummings, but also ones by lesser-known poets. It is particularly noted for "espous[ing] no specific morality, no politesse, and no didacticism", as well as for giving a relatively modern presentation with photographs and modern typefaces.[4] This presentation was in stark contrast to the practices of textbook publishers of the 1960s, which seemingly "cramm[ed] as many problems onto a page as possible".[5][6] In 1969, Watermelon Pickle was described by one commentator as having "become one of the more popular high school literature materials".[7] Another commentator in 1999 called it "[t]he most widely used anthology for young adults ever and still in print".[8] A 2002 article describes Watermelon Pickle as "establish[ing] a long-overdue niche" for young adult poetry.[9] The book is titled after the last poem, "Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle Received from a Friend called Felicity" by John Tobias.[10][11] References1. ^{{cite journal|last1=Carbone|first1=Suzanne|last2=McCoy|first2=Elizabeth|title=Books for Children and Young People|journal=Wisconsin Library Bulletin|date=1968|volume=64|issue=6|page=442|url=http://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015036850421?urlappend=%3Bseq=956|accessdate=January 13, 2016|via=HathiTrust}} {{open access}} {{Poetry-collection-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Schwedt|first1=Rachel E.|last2=DeLong|first2=Janice|title=Young Adult Poetry: A Survey and Theme Guide|date=2002|publisher=Greenwood Press|location=Westport, Connecticut|isbn=9780313313363|pages=17–18}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last1=Winkeljohann|first1=Rosemary|title=Queries: How Can I Help Children to Enjoy Poetry?|journal=Language Arts|date=March 1981|volume=58|issue=3|page=355|jstor= 41961308|subscription=yes}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Helbig|first1=Alathea K.|editor1-last=Nodelman|editor1-first=Perry|title=Touchstones|date=1987|publisher=Children's Literature Association|location=West Lafayette, Indiana|isbn=0-937263-02-8|pages=95–104|chapter=Dunning, Lueders, and Smith's Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle: A Watershed in Poetry for the Young|volume=2}} 5. ^{{cite book|editor1-last=Brewbaker|editor1-first=James|editor2-last=Hyland|editor2-first=Dawnelle J.|title=Poems by Adolescents and Adults: A Thematic Collection for Middle School and High School|date=2002|publisher=National Council of Teachers of English|location=Urbana, Illinois|isbn=0-8141-3563-3|pages=2–3}} 6. ^{{cite journal|last1=Brewbaker|first1=James|title=Of Kent State, Old Yeller, and Harlem Summer: Recalling the Beginnings of Young Adult Literature in Academe|journal=ALAN Review|date=2013|volume=40|issue=3|page=59|url=http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/ejournals/ALAN/v40n3/pdf/brewbaker.pdf|accessdate=January 13, 2016|issn=0882-2840}} {{open access}} 7. ^{{cite journal|last1=Blount|first1=Nathan S.|last2=Searles|first2=John R.|title=Teaching Materials|journal=English Journal|date=November 1969|volume=58|issue=8|page=1268|jstor= 811561|subscription=yes}} 8. ^{{cite book|last1=Somers|first1=Albert B.|title=Teaching Poetry in High School|date=1999|publisher=National Council of Teachers of English|location=Urbana, Illinois|isbn=0-8141-5289-9|page=35}} 9. ^{{cite journal|last1=Crowe|first1=Chris|title=Young Adult Literature: YA Boundary Breakers and Makers|journal=English Journal|date=July 2002|volume=91|issue=6|page=117|jstor=821837|subscription=yes}} 10. ^{{cite journal|last1=Hoffecker|first1=Felicity|title=Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle|journal=English Journal|date=April 1983|volume=72|issue=4|pages=18–20|jstor= 817057|subscription=yes}} 11. ^{{cite journal|last1=Tobias|first1=John|title=Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle Received from a Friend called Felicity|journal=New Mexico Quarterly|date=1961|volume=31|issue=1|page=45|url=http://hdl.handle.net/1928/24135|accessdate=January 13, 2016|via=University of New Mexico LoboVault}} {{open access}} 6 : Poetry anthologies|American poetry collections|1966 children's books|American children's books|American non-fiction books|Children's poetry |
