Doo-Wop Pop by Roni Schotter

3.0

Fine story of a doo-wop singer turned school janitor who teaches the quietest children in the school to sing and dance. Internal rhymes in the young narrator's text have an appropriately musical feel.

My favorite element is the illustrations. There's a blocky element that has its own rhythm, and the kids' expressions are as realistic as candid photos from a city classroom. I olny wish they had more of a skin-tone range to reflect the full African-American spectrum.
