The L.A. Times praised this CD for the
way the book's "pictorial wordplay" is converted into
"innovative songs." The reviewer noted that "In 'Catch,' . . . singers toss the melody back and forth;
vocals convey the on-and-off wink of 'Fireflies,' and in 'Kites,' the tug of the wind is
unmistakable." [Click those titles, to see and

describing.]
Outside The Lines Music
This CD builds on the book Outside The Lines:
Poetry At Play, turning its "concrete" graphic style into
the musical equivalent. In the book, poems graphically evoke
various play experiences. Similarly, the songs based on it use
music to suggest the actions, excitement, and fun of a wide
range of play activities. You can see how
this works--look at the graphics and listen to the songs--by

disk at CD BABY

too). | |
