"There's something about this combination of art and poetry that brings out the best characteristics in both. It provides a visual, even if they're from different eras or cultures as they often are, giving the art a context and the poetry an identity, making them both relevant. Like other reviewers, I got my hands on this when I was young but I still love this book and think it's a great read for any age."
"A relative gave this to me when I was about 10, and it was one of my favorites. It has such a wonderfully ecclectic mix of poetry and artwort and it just came together perfectly."
"I received this book for my 9th birthday, and it is the first book of poetry I personally owned. It introduced me to the poetry of Langston Hughes, which has become a life-long love. I used to sit up at night memorizing "Juke Box Love Song." This is a great book for introducing kids to poetry without condescending to them. The poems that are included are manageable, but the collection doesn't underestimate the audience. The inclusion of art pieces with the poetry is a wonderful way to engage young readers."
