Lyrical Ballad Day

May

Lyrical Ballad Day on May 27 celebrates a very old book of poems called "Lyrical Ballads," which was first published a long time ago in 1798. This special book was created by two famous poets, William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The poems talked about nature and everyday people in a new and interesting way.

It's like a party for poems!
