Analysis and comments on The Bumblebee by James Whitcomb Riley

Comment 4 of 4, added on January 11th, 2006 at 8:48 PM.

This poem has been set to music by Peter J. Durow for 2 treble voices. My
4/5 grade choir is learning this wonderful poem set to a very fun song and
I wanted to learn more about JW Riley and this poem if possible.
