Favorite poems from this collection: Harriet Tubman, Lessie, Aunt Roberta, Keepsake, and Way Down in the Music. I love Greenfield's poems and the Dillons' illustrations.

This book contains illustrations and references that are classic 70s. However, there is a timelessness to the poems that will take the reader right back to their own childhood.

I loved that there was a variety of structured poetry and prose in this book. All of the poems are written about topics that children can relate to: jumping rope, riding in a car, taking music class in school, dressing up in parents' clothes, and playing with friends. This is a good selection of poetry that is on the childrens' level and is still interesting.
Personally, I didn't care for most of the poems because they were very short and didn't hold my attention. The topics covered are somewhat mundane real life events, so I didn't find them as compelling.
