Summary: GREAT poems for EVERY child!
Comment: I picked up this book at a conference when I read the poem The Scratch. This poem fits my three year old perfectly. I had the idea to assign poems to my students who are very behind in reading. I am a the Special Education Coordinator for a very small school. My students LOVED the poems and are learning the poems to perform in front of parents and friends! The poems are easy to read and fun. I'm so glad that I found this book. It has been very motivating for my students. My daughter enjoys the funny poems as well.

Summary: Tedd Arnold's sweet illustrations with some poems tacked on
Comment: Tedd Arnold has forevermore immortalized himself through his Huggly series masterpieces, as well as jewels like Parts and More Parts, Inside The House That Is Haunted, Inside The Zoo In The City. If you don't know what I am talking about right now, please rush and do a search for these titles here at Amazon, and I guarantee you that your child and yourself will be delighted to no end with the charming stories and Mr.Arnold's trademark "watercolor and pencil wiggle" illustrations, original and visually delicious.
Having said that, let's return back to the subject of the book "Giant Children" by Brod Bagert. I would bottom line the value of this book this way: it's biggest quality comes from the fact that the illustrations were done by Tedd Arnold. If not for the elaborate and loving touch of the pictures he provides, the book itself would be a nothing-to-write-home-about collection of verses ranging from passable ("Giant Children", "Chocolate Maniac") to bland ("Buffalo In The Library"). Mr.Bagert seeks to make schoolchildren, a stable of his audience, to identify with the poems, and goes overboard with "Booger Love", which even my 2nd-grader son found gross.
The quality of the poems non-withstanding, the book still scores a major win with the kids due to the illustrations, like I said. If you and your children appreciate Tedd Arnold's style, this book is going to be a great value for you. He even sneaks Huggly into the illustration for "Spaceball"!! If you don't care about Mr.Arnold's works now and just want a new book for your kid, it will also do just nicely. Mostly all poems are written in an easy to follow syllable and straightforward vocabulary, and are approachable for most 6-7-year-olds. Click that "Add to cart" button!
