Crystal - your list matches up with what I saw over my twenty-five year career as an elementary school teacher. In fact, I wrote about that very thing today on ReaderKidZ<http://www.readerkidz.com/2014/04/06/firefly-july-and-a-poem-for-every-season/>
.
Kids easily discover *Where the Sidewalk Ends* and other similar books of verse. That's why it's so important for teachers, parents, and librarians to introduce kids to all the *other* poetry goodness that's being published.
We know it's a tough market, and as Lee Bennett Hopkins mentioned several days ago, anthologies for children aren't being published as readily as they once were and new children's poets don't have the same opportunities they once had to introduce their work. Still, those of us who can, need to help kids discover other poets and the few new poetry collections/anthologies that are out there. Here's a link to my post about several of those: http://www.readerkidz.com/2014/04/06/firefly-july-and-a-poem-for-every-season/
