Joyful Noise: A Newbery Award Winner Hardcover - 1988
by Paul Fleischman; Eric Beddows (Illustrator)
Written to be read aloud by two voices, here are poems--funny, sad, loud, and quiet--that resound with a booming, boisterous, joyful noise. "This marvelous, lyrical evocation of the insect world demands accolades. . . . There are 14 poems in the handsomely designed volume, with wonderfully interpretive illustrations. Each selection is a gem, polished to perfection".--The Horn Book. Newbery Award; ALA Notable Children's Book; ALA Best Book for Young Adults.
From the rear cover
Written to be read aloud by two voices -- sometimes alternating, sometimes simultaneous -- here is a collection of irresistible poems that celebrate the insect world, from the short life of the mayfly to the love song of the book louse. Funny, sad, loud, and quiet, each of these poems resounds with a booming, boisterous, joyful noise.
In this remarkable volume of poetry for two voices, a companion to I Am Phoenix, Paul Fleischman verbally re-creates the "Booming/boisterios/joyful noise" of insects. The poems resound with the pulse of the cicada and the drone of the honeybee. Eric Beddows's vibrant drawings send each insect soaring, spinning, or creeping off the page in its own unique way.
Paul Fleischman has created not only a clear and fascinating guide to the insect world -- from chrysalid butterflies to whirligig beetles -- but an exultant celebration of life.
