Phyllis Root Reihenfolge der Bücher
Phyllis Root betrachtet Bilderbücher als Aufführungen, die die Beteiligung eines Kindes erfordern – etwas, das beide tun. Diese Denkweise befreite sie darin, mit Worten und Rhythmus zu spielen, was sich in ihren lebhaften Geschichten widerspiegelt. Ihre Werke, oft inspiriert von der Umgangssprache und kindlichen Erlebnissen, zeichnen sich durch ihre musikalische Qualität aus und sind für das laute Vorlesen konzipiert. Root ist eine Meisterin des rhythmischen Erzählens, die sowohl ruhige Schlaflieder als auch ausgelassene, verspielte Geschichten erschaffen kann, oft geboren aus endlosen Überarbeitungen und einem Spiel mit Klängen.
