This book goes through all twelve months and describes what each one typically involves for a child. "Once Around the Sun" takes it audience on a journey throughout one year. The book is in the order of the months starting in January and ending in December. The poems tell the tales of the different weather that occurs each month throughout the year. The audience reads of the cold weather in January and sees how it warms up in March, but the cold weather is welcomed back come November. We also see the different kinds of activities that occur each month. For examples, the books and pencils are left behind in June, but when September rolls back around new pencils are bought for school. This book of poems brought readers through one calendar year. Each poem had a similar style, but a different message. Some of the poems in the book were concrete, as other were just rhyming poems. Many of the poems contained the element of onomatopoeia (ex. "Chirping Chirring"). Imagery was seem all throughout the poems, and I could almost feel the different feelings for each month. The illustrations were also very well done, and contributed nicely to the collection of poetry. Illustrations: watercolor. This is a book of poems, twelve poems, one poem for each month of the year. Each poem describes what happens in each month of the year, whether it be a different season, holiday, or activity that is usually done in that month. This book is in the genre of poetry. It is categorized as poetry because it is comprised of twelve short poems that express the author's emotions and telling us stories. Genre: poetry, Age Appropriateness: Primary Once Around the Sun displays narrative, lyrical, and free verse poetry as each page introduces a new month. The imagery pairs really well with the poetry and I really enjoyed the diversity of each page as the seasons changed from Winter to Spring to Summer then Fall. I'm concerned that some words like 'forsythia' will be too upper level for younger children to understand but I guess the book can be use to widen k-3rd graders vocabulary. Children can always guess what time of the year it is by knowing the clues that mark each month. "Once Around the sun" is a sequence of poems for all of the months in the year. I really liked "October" because I am looking forward to fall and Halloween, also my son's birthday. October is about day lights saving and Halloween. All of my favorite things. This book would be great to teach children marks of every month. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Children don't need a calendar to tell them which season it is.Every month has its own distinct clues, like in September "when yellow pencils / in brand-new eraser hats / bravely wait on perfect points." In a dozen unforgettable poems, this fresh yet nostalgic collection captures the excitement of each season, spinning us once around the sun--twelve months, four seasons, one amazing year.
