- W2055838077 abstract "Reviewed by: Bella & Bean Jeannette Hulick Dotlich, Rebecca Kai Bella & Bean; illus. by Aileen Leijten. Atheneum, 200932p ISBN 978-0-689-85616-7$15.99 R 5-7 yrs Mice Bella and Bean are good friends but have different interests: Bella is a serious poet, while Bean is more light-hearted and outdoorsy. The two friends sometimes bicker (Poets need peace and quiet, says Bella. Peace and quiet with a pinch of grump, responds Bean) but their friendship is clearly strong and solid, as seen in the book's final scene in which the two meet at the pond in the moonlight to hang out and write a poem about their friendship. Bella's poetry-writing process (She wrote words that reminded her of the moon: white, round, silver, and bright. She wiggled just right in her chair and added: flower, bonnet, sun, and breeze) provides an intriguing secondary focus for the story as well, making the title additionally useful for inspiring poetry writing in the classroom or home. The effervescent Bean is an excellent partner to serious and dreamy Bella, and both characters are original and likable individuals. Leijten's illustrations (drawn in graphite pencil and colored in Photoshop) are fresh and whimsical; there's curly, slightly Seuss-ian flavor to the lines (particularly the interior furnishings): and a warm, muted color palette (featuring mostly yellow, brown, rose, and turquoise) and Bella and Bean's pointy noses and prominent teeth keep things from getting too sweet. Give this to your nascent poets and their buddies. [End Page 358] Copyright © 2009 The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois" @default.
