A Chorus of Questions: Readers Respond to Patricia Polacco.
Bloem, Patricia L.; Manna, Anthony L.
Reading Teacher, v52 n8 p802-08 May 1999
Describes how the authors worked with five groups of second and fourth graders using picture books written and illustrated by Patricia Polacco in a project that involved reading Polacco's books aloud to the children, encouraging their aesthetic engagement with books, valuing children's questions, and culminating in a session in which children asked questions of Polacco herself.
