Rhymes and chimes and lots of fun

Review by Alice Cary

In Juba This and Juba That, librarian and storyteller Virginia A. Tashjian has collected "stories for telling, songs for singing, rhymes for chanting and riddles for guessing" for adults hoping to cast a spell on young listeners. Use it if you're planning a party, reading to your child's class, or merely hoping to enliven playtime.

Originally published in 1969, this classic has been revised by Tashjian as well as enlivened by the humorous line drawings of Nadine Bernard Westcott.
