Overview

Zigzag sandwiches zigzag lunch zigzag bananas in a zigzag bunch Zigga zagga zigga zagga zeet kids love zomething good to eat! Celebrated word whiz Loris Lesynski is back with a poetry collection for her youngest fans. After hundreds of school visits, Loris Lesynski knows that kindergarten kids have their own kind of wit. Too old for nursery rhymes and too young for irony, kindergarteners crave a pure silliness that Zigzag supplies by the zillions! Bursting with zaniness, these poems focus on the pleasure of sound and the rhythm of language, and each contains an inherent invitation to join in. Catchy rhymes like Anything's a Drum Drum and TEE HEE HEE prove that knees can be a drum drum/both of them a fun drum and encourage readers and listeners to sing and shout/ time to let the noises OUT. With rhymes about subjects as simple and familiar as school, food and even walking, Zigzag demonstrates how much fun poetry, and everyday life, can be.

Reviews

Words pop off the page. [Lesynski's] words are chosen carefully for their music as well as their meaning, to allow the many ESL students entering kindergarten to enjoy the poetry and to clean context from the sound rather than the meaning of the words themselves... Her trademark color and humor bring the kindergarten experience to life.--Brenda Halliday Canadian Children's Book News (04/01/2005)


Rollicking poems are full of energy and opportunities for participation.--Shawn Brommer School Library Journal (01/01/2005)
