Book Descriptions
for Turtle in July by Marilyn Singer and Jerry Pinkney
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
Endpapers the color of a July sun invite readers to a dynamically presented year-round exploration of wild and domestic creatures. Seventeen poems and accompanying watercolor and line drawings bring the year to life in a new way. The poetic images characterizing the creatures by sound, rhythm, and season show Singer's stunning mastery of words. (Ages 7-12)
