Product Info Reviews

Description:

Children who have experienced war can be preternaturally eloquent, and often are in Laura Robb's collection. Even the bluntest of responses to violence can have a touch of poetry to them. In Music and Drum, however, the editor has also collected the reactions of adults, many of them fine poets, including Langston Hughes and Carl Sandburg. The theme is all of a piece, but the balance occasionally goes awry--with grown-up eloquence sometimes besting a child's simplicity. (Age 8 and older)
