A poem shared through movement

Baby Dance pairs a rhythmic poem by nineteenth-century poet Anne Taylor with pastel illustrations of a father holding and moving with a baby. Its subject is the physical play of being lifted, turned, and carried, giving the book a clear connection to music and movement in a parent-and-child reading moment. The board-book format and short, patterned verse keep the focus on the repeated gestures and the closeness between caregiver and baby.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Babies and toddlers responding to music and movement
  • Parents or caregivers seeking a short book to share with a baby
  • Families interested in rhythmic verse about a parent and child

Book overview

Up and down, to and fro, coo and crow baby, there you go. Up to the ceiling, down to the ground, backward and forward, round and round ... All babies love to be lifted, twirled and held in loving arms. Now a rhythmic poem by nineteenth century poet Anne Taylor makes a delightful board book perfect for baby and parent to share. Marjorie van Heerden has captured the energy and joy of this playful text in vivd pastel illustrations full of the soft, gentle motion of dance.

 

For babies who are responding to music and movement, here's a playful poem that has father and child dancing lovingly across the pages.
