Joyful Noise and I Am Phoenix Audiobook Summary

Joyful Noise

Written to be read aloud by two voices, sometimes alternating, sometimes simultaneous — here is a recording of irresistible poems that celebrate the insect world, from the short life of the mayfly to the love song of the book louse. Funny, sad, loud and quiet, each of these poems resounds with a booming, boisterous, joyful noise. Winner of the 1989 Newbery Medal.

I Am Pheonix

I Am Phoenix is an exultant celebration of the sounds and essence of the bird world. A companion to Joyful Noise, written to be spoken aloud by two voices and masterfully performed by Lloyd and Twomey, these poems perfectly capture the beauty of birds in their singing, soaring and rejoicing.

Performed by John Bedford and Anne Twomey

This collection is delightfully musical and must be read aloud with another to enjoy the full effect of the rhythms. I particularly enjoyed "Honeybees," "Book Lice," "The Actor," and "I AM PHOENIX."

Lovely poetry. I listened to the audio and it was interesting hearing two or more people reading the lines at the same time. Sometimes it got a bit confusing trying to follow what they were saying but most times it added to the intensity of the poem.
