What Moms and Dads Said:
Gorgeous Inspirational Dancing girls alllllll over my backyard
...while looking at the cover with all those poses said, "I can do that one. I can't do that one. I can do that one. I can't do that one..." Then she started trying them. The pictures alone inspired her...
As soon as we read something like, "Can you try..." she would hop right up and try it. She lost a little steam reading through it all in one sitting, but coming back to it at different times and trying smaller sections was just right.
She thinks the book is just right for her age 9], not too young or old feeling.
This 11-year old] thought it was easy to follow and liked all the interesting shape pictures, she liked that there were"challenges" to try. She thought the animal shapes were a little young for her.... She liked that it was fun to do (follow along), informative, and had a story about Konora.

Автор: Foley Jack Название: The Dancer and the Dance: A Book of Distinctions ISBN: 1597090948 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781597090940 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 2752.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Jack Foley s The Dancer and the Dance: A Book of Distinctions deliberately challenges many conventional ways of thinking about poetry. Though extremely scholarly and aware of the \u201ctradition, \u201d Foley offers readings rooted in a consciousness which is simultaneously non academic and open to the new. \u201cThe self of this book, \u201d he writes, \u201cis not a unity but a multiplicity. Many people would agree with this idea of selfhood--the self as a \u2018multiplicity of voices --but clarification is still required as to how the concept of the self as multiplicity affects literary criticism, how it affects our actual reading of poems. It may be that the self we postulate as we read a poem contradicts the self we experience in the world; it is also possible that familiar poems may be experienced anew by being read in the light of multiplicity.\u201d Foley s explorations lead him into radically new readings of \u201ccanonic\u201d work by poets such as Keats, Yeats and Mallarm\u00e9, into the world of opera, free jazz, New Formalism, and the writing of song lyrics, into \u201cethnic\u201d literature, theater, and finally into problems of \u201cspoken word\u201d and \u201cslam poetry.\u201d Throughout, his point of view, initially controversial, becomes finally compelling. \u201cIt is possible, \u201d he says quietly about the whole of Western culture, \u201cthat Plato was wrong, and that we must make an effort to think in a different way if we are to encounter reality at all.\u201d
