(2) K-3 I Can Read Book series. Illustrated by Brian Floca. Twenty poems in a variety of forms explore the pleasures of sport. Although this is not a novel theme for a poetry anthology, what gives the collection its distinction is its perfect pitch for beginning readers. The poems are short and so are the words; images are immediate, and rhyme supplies good clues for new readers. Energetically illustrated, the book provides a brisk workout for readers new to the team.
