Tie Your Socks and Clap Your Feet: Mixed-up Poems

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Stephen Kroninger. In this collection, the maestro claps her feet, a groundhog brings valentines on Christmas Eve, and purple oranges are lemony sweet. Although individual poems are amusing, as a whole they become predictable. The zany collages using cut paper and magazine photographs perfectly capture the mood of the poems.
