About This Document: Candlewick isbn 978-0-7636-4562-5 $15.99 (3) YA Nine short stories by young adult authors including Robert Lipstyte, Rita Williams-Garcia, Joseph Bruchac, and Walter Dean Myers capture the activity of an urban New York City basketball court in a single day. Nineteen dinosaur poems plus a pronunciation guide to dinosaur names make up this easy reader collection; as promised in the subtitle, the pieces poke a little dino-fun. Evoking blues music through theme and sometimes rhythm, Adoff's sixty free-verse poems, idiosyncratically punctuated and spaced, flow easily. There's not much variety to the pieces: the subject is African American life, the imagery largely rural and Southern.\n Atmospheric watercolor illustrations reflect the different scenes.
