Poems for Galloping
pictures by Robert M. Quackenbush 1963
First of all, let's appreciate how great the illustrator's last name, "Quakenbush" is! (It reminds me of a Marx brothers movie!)
These midcentury illustrations are really making me happy! And the collection of poems accompanying them are all about movement- galloping, sliding, hopping, swinging, skipping, marching, etc... The words and the pictures do a great job demonstrating the boundless physical energy of kids!
