Karate Hour — Carol Nevius
KARATE CLASS SHOULD ALWAYS BE THIS EXCITING!
Karate class begins and students come together to practice their blocks and stancesâ€"â€"from crescent kicks to front kicks to tuck roll stands. Dynamic black-and-white artwork of children bowing, kicking and sailing through the air contrasts with their brilliantly colored karate belts in this rhythmic read-aloud that explores the action and philosophy of karate.
