內容簡介: |
From the catchy nonsense of X. J. Kennedy''s ''Snowflake Souffle''
to the simple, surprising imagery of Valerie Worth''s ''Sun'' to
Hopkins''s own onomatopoeic ''Thunder, '' the short lines, satisfying
rhyme, and physicalness of the words can lure beginning
readers--and also younger listeners--to the joy of sounds that make
sense.

關於作者: |
Lee Bennett Hopkins, born in 1938, is famous for his work as an
anthologist, author, and avid promoter of bringing poetry to
children. He has compiled more than 80 anthologies on subjects
including animals, weather, school days, sports, U.S. history and
geography, holidays, and embarrassing moments for young people.
Though the subjects he chooses are outwardly ordinary, Hopkins
treats them in eccentric ways. For example, Hoofbeats, Claws
Rippled Fins: Creature Poems, is about odd pets like tarantulas and
how to love them. His anthologies have won widespread acclaim from
book critics and include both well-known and newly published
works.
