Joyful Noise, written by Paul Fleischman, is a children's book of poetry about insects. Each poem is designed for two readers to enjoy together; there are two columns of verse for children to alternate reading aloud. The poems are about the lives of six-legged creatures ranging from fireflies writing in the sky to a love affair between two lice, crickets eating pie crumbs and the single day in the life of a mayfly.
Marcus and Lella look forward to reading these poems aloud each day. One of the poems even had me in tears, as it was so beautifully written.
Enjoy!
