Book Synopsis Schoolyard Rhymes by : Judy Sierra

Download or read book Schoolyard Rhymes written by Judy Sierra and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2012-07-25 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Schoolyard rhymes are catchy and fun. They are easy to remember. In fact, they stick in the mind like bubble gum to a shoe." writes Judy Sierra in her introduction to this lively collection of traditional playground chants. Included are more than 50 verses ranging from the familiar jump rope rhyme about the mythical lady with the alligator purse to less familiar counting-out ones, from funny rhymes for ball-bouncing and hand-clapping games to "Liar, liar, pants on fire, nose as long as a telephone wire" and other choice insults of children. Melissa Sweet includes bright, colorful fabric swatches in her watercolor-and-pencil collages to perfectly capture the spirit of these funky, street-smart verses that children love to recite and chant.
