What is Beat the Drum, Independence Day Has Come: Poems for the Fourth of July about?

Lee Bennett Hopkins and Tomie dePaola have once again assembled a dazzling and whimsical selection of poetry and pictures - this time to celebrate the Fourth of July. In Beat the Drum: Independence Day Has Come , a delightful sampling of verses from such poets as Carl Sandburg and Stephen Vincent Benet reflect the joyfulness and sheer fun - parades, picnics, fireworks - and at the same time the patriotic aspects of this very important celebration. Tomie DePaola's exuberant red, white, and blue illustrations literally explode off the page! A perfect companion piece to the other books in this holiday series, Beat the Drum: Independence Day Has Come will enhance story hours and school assemblies or provide a happy time alone at home.
