Synopsis:
"Here's a version of a classic that grown-ups will want to share with young children; it's an 'Oh I remember that one' winner. The bold folk-style acrylic illustrations with their whimsical details perfectly match the situations in the [text].... And, of course, children will relish repeating the rhymes as they gather pace in this rollicking, bounce-on-the-knee classic" -- Booklist
This classic children's rhyme gathers pace and complexity as it tumbles across the pages. Children will delight in repeating the rhymes and following antics of animals and characters of every size and shape.
