Poems selected by Myra Cohn Livingston and illustrated by Jean Zallinger
This book isn't as fun as the other poem books I looked at. The illustrations are detailed, and done in what look like pencil. The poems are good, and students in my class may want to free read this, but I don't think I would read it aloud to the class. I don't think it would hold their attention for too long. The poems are all about siblings, what they do together, quarrels, forgiving, and traditions. The poems all look about the same except the length. It would be a good book for diversity because the illustrations show different ethnicities.
