In 26 never-before-published short and wonderfully clever poems, Langston Hughes takes children through both the alphabet and the animal world.
From Ape to Zebra--with bees, camels, fish, and even a unicorn in between--he paints a picture of each animal with just a few simple, but telling, words.
About the Author: Langston Hughes (1902-1967) was one of the most versatile writers of the artistic movement known as the Harlem Renaissance.
Though known primarily as a poet, he also wrote plays essays, novels, short stories, and books and poems for children.
Ben Vereen has left his mark on the Broadway stage, concert circuit, and in film and television.
He has also been widely honored for his humanitarian activities and work with young people.
