Description
Double Dutch is sidewalk rhythm, poetry in motion, a really good day with some swinging friends. This colorful, vibrant treasure is the ultimate tribute to the unique sport & pastime of double Dutch. Written & compiled by celebrated author & journalist Veronica Chambers, this book is filled with her own personal memories of girlhood & jumping rope, along with poems, interviews, songs, history, quotes, rhymes, & photographs. At the heart of the book is a celebration, not just of a sport, but of sisterhood -- after all, it takes a few friends to make that rope really swing & those feet jump for joy.
