Whirligig by Paul Fleischman

Book of poetry and artwork describing experiences of loss, renewal and joy through a journey towards fatherhood. Excerpt from the forward to the book: Through Silence and Ash is like road map that marks not only destinations but the struggle to get there and it is all done smoothly, quickly and playfully. Harry animates words and uses shapes and drawing until a poem becomes a performance of its own, a prayer or a ritual.
Paul Fleischman is the award-winning author of many books for children and young adults, including JOYFUL NOISE: POEMS FOR TWO VOICES, winner of the Newbery Medal; WESLANDIA, a SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL Best Book of the Year and an American Library Association Notable Children's Book; and THE ANIMAL HEDGE, illustrated by Bagram Ibatoulline. It came out of the blue, Paul Fleischman says of SIDEWALK CIRCUS. A vision of a ringmaster standing on a city street, describing the sun rising and the clouds changing color as if they were circus acts. Eventually, I decided to leave him out of the story. And then I decided to leave the words out as well.

Kevin Hawkes is the illustrator of a number of popular books for children, including WESLANDIA and HANDEL, WHO KNEW WHAT HE LIKED, an American Library Association Notable Children's Book and recipient of a BOSTON GLOBE-HORN BOOK Honor Award. He says, As I worked on SIDEWALK CIRCUS, I spent a lot of time in Portland, Maine. I was amazed by all the things going on in the city, and all the people and things I had never really noticed before. I am grateful to Paul Fleischman for opening my eyes.
