by Vivian Walsh

The Drums of Noto Hanto
by J. Alison James
In a story that cries out to be performed, the people of Nabune Japan, on the Noto Hanto coast, cleverly save their village from invading samurai by frightening the enemy away with masks and fires on the beach and...drums. From their ships the samurai believe that evil spirits are attacking them, but it is a marvelous trick that children will recognize as one they might play. And here is a glory of this dramatic book: It invites play and participation. Small and giant drum sounds -- titi tiki, Podo pada Poda pada, Ko to Ko to, Don kada Don kada Don Don Don -- pervade the telling. Children will join in. Another glory is the artwork, cut-paper "paintings" unlike any you've seen; they seem to swell with sound themselves, conveying the beauty of seaside landscape, the high-spirited action of the characters, the drama of the facts.
Bruh Rabbit and the Tar Baby Girl
by Virginia Hamilton
Bruh Rabbit may indeed have met his match when he comes across a tar baby in the middle of the road. The baby's deaf, dumb and blind attitude infuriates the plucky trickster, just as Wolf planned! When Bruh Rabbit gets entangled in the tar baby's sticky embrace, has he finally been foiled by his long-time enemy? Certainly not, if Wolf falls for Bruh Rabbit's clever reverse-psychology and flings the wily rabbit into the briar patch! Spun in Virginia Hamilton's unique vernacular, this will be a delight to those familiar with Bruh Rabbit's games, and a unforgettable introduction for newcomers
