"The story is not only a clever coming-of-age tale, but also, crucially, a portrait of humans and animals in productive conversation and coexistence. The boy's maturation culminates with his becoming a composer (the book includes one page of sheet music for a song titled "1st Invention," written by Di Paolo). The author's message is clear: He wishes to promote literal harmony between human and beast.
A moving invitation to heed the voices of readers' furred, feathered, and finned friends."

2020 IBPA's Benjamin Franklin Award review for David Di Paolo's, Animal Spirits in the Millennium. The judges weigh in on the category of poetry...

"The elegant, black cover is both dramatic and delicate simultaneously, and it creates interest.... The book held my interest and presented its message in a clear fashion."

"This work substantially above most of the rest of the submissions in this year's poetry category in terms of personal interest and readability and will place very highly in the final ranking."

In his return to poetry, David Di Paolo brilliantly examines the socially-charged topics of our times through a collection of poems, a short story, and music. Animal Spirits navigates through our sometimes volatile and divided existence through the symbolism and wisdom of the animals around us, allowing us to gain insight from their life lessons. With lovely artwork from Dace Kidd, Animal Spirits captures the essence of our humanity, and what the totems from our history can teach us about ourselves.
