What poet wrote the book Leaves of Grass?

  1. Walt Whitman.

  2. Richard Wright.

  3. Margaret Atwood.

  4. Emily Dickinson.

The correct answer is: Walt Whitman.

Walt Whitman wrote the book Leaves of Grass. Richard Wright was an American novelist and social critic, not a poet. Similarly, Margaret Atwood is a novelist, poet, and essayist, but she did not write Leaves of Grass. Emily Dickinson was also a poet, but she wrote the collection of poems "Emily Dickinson The Collected Poems" and not Leaves of Grass. Therefore, A is the only correct answer.
