With contagious enthusiasm, Painter combines music, story, puppets, and art activities into some very ambitious story-time programming for pre- through middle-school children. Each theme-related chapter (for example, "Silly Stories with Jazz and Popular Music," "Dog Stories," "Relationships") opens with a narrative about books and authors and featured musicians (classical, jazz, and popular) and includes practical tips for the presenter. A sample story time, with a variety of activities for library and classroom, follows. Painter also includes resources and references. While the juxtaposition of all these elements at first appears overwhelming, Painter's gusto for his topic is very persuasive. In fact, his enthusiasm may be just the remedy for practitioners with the "seen that, been there" story-time blues. Janice Del Negro
