From the back cover: "In the classroom as every teacher knows, it's different. Each of the 106 poems in this book was chosen with this difference in mind. They were chosen expressly for a teacher to read aloud to-and with-her class. Every selection invites the listeners' participation-vocal. physical, or emotional. The selections cover an extensive range of primary-grade children's interests and experiences. There is plenty of nonsense and humor, and there are some sad poems too.

Little Sister is very busy doing all the work around the house and the yard. But she doesn’t mind: she sings and hums, and she grows prettier and prettier as she does her chores. Her wicked stepmother and stepsister can’t stand the fact that Little Sister is so happy. One day, they tell Little Sister to bring home violets in the middle of winter—or not to come home at all! How Little Sister gets help from the Month Brothers in the forest offers a delightful twist on this Slavic version of Cinderella.

Of all the great Bible stories, David's battle with Goliath probably has the most resonance for children. After all, they know a lot about being smaller and weaker than their foes. De Regniers' distinguished retelling of this Bible story is fast-paced and engrossing, yet stays true to the strength and glory of the biblical language. Full color.
