The Day the Universe Exploded My Head by Allan Wolf, illustrated by Anna Raff. POETRY PICTURE BOOK. Candlewick, 2019. $18. 9780763680251
BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Wolf has written and Raff has illustrated a host of very clever poems about the objects, forces, and people in our solar system. Included are two voice, three voice, and even four voice poems for group performance, but really every poem in here begs to be read aloud, sung aloud, rapped aloud. I can’t imagine a science class that wouldn’t be enhanced by these poems. And what a great idea for a cross-curricular activity.
