Summary: Max Got Two Fingers
Comment: Pinkney returns with a somewhat hackneyed attempt to draw a veil over the real problems facing a child growing up in the inner city with his latest effort - "Max Found Two Sticks". At no point does he elaborate on the fact that Max had to root around in a pile of used needles, empty glue tins and worn rubbers before he found said sticks. Sure, the tap-a-long rhythms are fun, for a while, but that's missing the point somewhat, as 15 minutes beating the bassline to House of Pain's seminal classic - "Jump Around" on the violin case of a sleeping busker does not a happy childhood make. Get with the program - buy your child a real drumkit instead. It'll keep them off the streets.

Summary: Wonderfully Rhythmic!
Comment: I have used this book for several years in my music classroom. I've used it to introduce percussion family, marching band,self-expression and creative compositions. The story itself is wonderfully done, but the illustrations make the book a treasure. My students ask to read this one during Read Aloud Week.
