Review: Heard this book on NPR Saturday edition 10 days after the twin towers bombing. This book was among the first things that provided healing of the shock--allowed me to get my mind off of terror and sadness and onto my child and life going on (like the seasons). Daniel Pinkwater's rendition is priceless and I plan to use this book to read to my son and treasure forever.

Review: I experienced sheer delight reading PARK BEAT. From the perspective of a reading specialist, I find the illustrations offer endless opportunities for children to create mini-stories of their own. The details present a wonderland for youngsters to discover the activities that abound on each page. The rhythm and texture of the author's words are most appealing in describing the changing seasons. The explosions of color on each page create a sense of excitement and you just HAVE to love the overall playfulness of this book.

Summary: Park Beat
Review: This book has vivid, exciting, colorful illustrations and wonderful langauge. As an inner city elementary school reading specialist, I look for engaging books with a creative use of language. This book has rhythm and rhyme that may inspire many children to try to emulate the style and write their own book. Also, the language is rich and lends itself to a study of synonyms and words that appeal to all five senses. I took it out of the library and now I am adding it to my own.
