In 26 never-before-published short and wonderfully clever poems, Langston Hughes takes children through both the alphabet and the animal world. From Ape to Zebra--with bees, camels, fish, and even a unicorn in between--he paints a picture of each animal with just a few simple, but telling, words. Review: Five Stars - So free and imaginative. Not "cute". A light touch to the alphabet for creative children and parents.. Review: An adult ABC - Love it! It has so much fun in it! Young parents and older children will enjoy the word play and humor!

Harlem School of the Arts (1st-3rd grade art work)
Some of the Poems i didn't like but i read this book to my 2 boys (3 & 6) but the art work was nice and for a good cause not bad the kids in this book should be grown now great work.

What a Tribute!
This book is a wonderful tribute to one of America's finest poets. The book appeals to both children and adults. The poems are whimsical and fun. In my own classroom, the children list these poems as some of their favorites. The art work inspires my students to achieve as much as they can in their own art work. The introduction and afterward provide the reader with a history of the Harlem art's movement and Langston Hughes' contribution to this movement. The information provided could be shared with children, however it is written for advanced readers. Overall, this book is one of the most well thought out books that I have seen.
