Big Talk: Poems for Four Voices
by Paul Fleischman (Author) Beppe Giacobbe (Illustrator)
Following his Newbery Medal-winning Joyful Noise, Fleischman offers another collection of beautifully orchestrated, spirited poems for many voices. -- Booklist These rousing, rib-tickling poems demand the joy of reading aloud. Settle back and chant The Quiet Evenings Here, as Grandma rocks, the clock tick-tocks, and no one cares a hoot for the world outside. Delight in Seventh-Grade Soap Opera, alive with hearsay about who's holding hands with whom. This innovative book weaves a tapestry of rhythm that will have readers of all ages sounding off.

Paul Fleischman, like Wesley, constructed his own alternate world during his school years. Kevin Hawkes says that Wesley's world reminded him of Robinson Crusoe, one of his favorite books as a child.
