Gr 3-7–Prelutsky’s new poetry collection is a gift to the ears and eyes. Written in a variety of rhyme schemes, the poems describe feelings, unusual beasts, and monsters (the lazy slothrush, the confused niddlenudds, the wazawa). Black-and-white cartoon drawings accompany each poem and bring the words—both comical and descriptive—to life. Prelutsky is a master of humor and poetic device.
K-Gr 4–Hagerup (1905–85), considered one of the greatest Norwegian poets of the 20th century, also authored award-winning books and plays. This attractive collection contains 17 of her poems that are as familiar to Norwegian youngsters as English nursery rhymes are to American and British children. Hagerup’s rhymes feature bugs, plants, animals, and some very odd characters.
