Charles Smith Biography

Perfect Harmony: A Musical Journey with the Boys Choir of Harlem is more about music in general than it is about the world-famous choir, despite its title. Perfect Harmony includes several short poems that teach fundamental musical notions like rhythm (a track / for voices / to glide/slide and / ride / upon) and harmony, which are illustrated by images of boys in the choir in the middle of a song. Although the book contains a glossary that explains the terminology in prose, the poetry itself, according to Gillian Engberg of Booklist, "display the themes best." According to Nina Lindsay of School Library Journal, another appealing quality of the book is its tone, which "speaks spontaneously, eloquently, and directly to young readers." I Am America honours rambunctious children who represent the country's diversity. Smith's trademark style is evident in the book, which features images and a rhythmic, rhyming prose. Each layout depicts a youngster from two or three viewpoints. The youngsters are hamming it up for the camera in most of the photos; as one Publishers Weekly critic put it, "The images' impish spontaneity recalls the giddiness of repeated sessions in a photo booth." The youngsters are described in the text with phrases like "I have almond eyes" and "I have backward baseball hats." The goal of the book, according to Smith's website, is to celebrate our variety by showing children of many ethnicities enjoying fun.
