Description

One of The Globe and Mails Best Books of 2015 "A punk primer for the youngest set....Yis incredibly detailed clay figures are a kinetic and inspired art choice. Their crazy creativity matches the expressive spirit of punk....As [Morse] points out; the best way to learn about punk it just to listen....If invested adults love the topic; a shared reading experience cant be beat." --Kirkus Reviews "Clay artist Yi molds...fantastically detailed Plasticine figures to create scenes of the birth of punk. Using a benign craft-project material for the skinny bodies and ragged clothing of Joey Ramone; Sid Vicious; and their rowdy; fist-waving audiences is very much in the spirit of punk (Plasticine is especially good for mohawks); and readers will spend long stretches inspecting her painstakingly modeled guitars; amplifiers; and safety pins." --Publishers Weekly "Why Its Wild: A history of punk music for kids illustrated in Gumby-esque claymation (minus the –mation)." --School Library Journal; 100 Scope Notess "Wildest Childrens Books of 2015" "What is Punk? is fun; sophisticated and beautifully illustrated introduction to the music genre for kids--or adults." --New York Daily News "Reading What is Punk? to [my kids] made me feel as if I was passing on something truly significant.

Just dont be surprised if your niece ends up bleaching her hair blonde and tearing up her leather jacket at age 6." --Bustle "Written by Trampoline House founder Eric Morse in classically Suessical iambic; the book is lusciously illustrated with photographs of Play-Doh recreations of all mommys and daddys favorite punk heroes: the Ramones; Iggy and the Stooges--and Debbie Harry; David Byrne; David Johansen; Tom Verlaine; and Lou Reed all standing in front of CBGBs." --Bedford Bowery What Is Punk? is a must-read pop-culture primer for children--an introduction to the punk revolution; recreated in vivid 3-D clay illustrations and told through rhyming couplets.
