As he praises or mocks the country estates surrounding Baiae, Martial explores. This chapter analyses the diversity of themes which Martial ‘epigrammatizes’ in his portrayal of Baiae and Campania, giving prominence to epigrams on wine, its use and abuse (1.18), and scandalous, tragic, and miraculous narratives, dramatized, occasionally, with literary or historical allusion and intertext. She is working to complete her master’s degree in Elementary Education and currently teaches music and kindergarten. This text differentiation could allow pre-readers to recognize their favourite parts and join in the reading.A metafictive gem, The Book With No Pictures, is an absolute delight for both reader and child and is a must have book for any children’s collection.Highly Recommended: 4 out of 4 starsReviewer: Shaylyn BuchananShaylyn Buchanan is a teacher with Edmonton Public Schools. The read-out-loud thought process of the disgruntled reader is written in small black font, while the songs and nonsensical words are highlighted in colours and exciting lettering. While there are no images, the text decorates the pages with giant colourful words. As you read this book your children’s faces will light up with glee as you, the grown-up, bound by the rules of the book, are forced to sing nonsensical songs and spout funny confessions in silly voices page after page.One of the best features of this book is the use of font. Except there’s a rule about reading books, a rule that the reader might not be aware of.“Everything the words say, the person reading the book has to say.No matter what.That’s the deal.That’s the rule.”This means that the person reading the book has to read all the words, even if it’s a song about eating bugs off the rug or proclaiming out loud that your only friend in the whole wide world is a hippo named BOO BOO BUTT. It all seems very serious, and quite dull. Print.As the title suggests, this book has no pictures, only words. New York: Dial Books for Young Readers-Penguin Group, 2014.
