Abstract

Postulating that poems about music speak immediately to children, Strickland has gathered 55 short selections and arranged them in groups: "Poems That Dance," "Poems That Make Melodies," "Poems That Sing the Happies and the Blues," etc., with each section leading neatly into the next one. Entries range from rock- and pop-music lyrics and Native American chants to classic verse by poets as diverse as Ogden Nash, Carl Sandburg, Karla Kuskin, and Stevie Wonder. Black writers are well represented, and there is a sprinkling of new and lesser-known voices as well. Black-and-white pen-and-ink illustrations that resemble woodcuts appear on almost every page.
