Grab a partner (or many more) and read these playful poems for
multiple voices aloud -- evoking all the high spirits and hijinks of a
day at school.
Out on the playground, kids are skipping rope and making trades. In the
library, they're whispering, fi dgeting, and giggling. In the classroom,
they're learning their lessons....or spinning tales about why they
haven't turned in their homework. Throughout this collection of nineteen
poems -- ideal for reading aloud in pairs, but just as much fun with one
or many -- words, pictures, and voices erupt in an irresistible
invitation to join an exhilarating ride around school. So hop on the
bus! The pencils are tapping, the clock is ticking, and reports are
due...tomorrow?
