Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreS Twenty action rhymes that are suitable for use in preschool storyhours. Pen-and-ink and watercolor drawings demonstrate possible actions to accompany the rhymes. The children in the illustrations, wearing animal and monster costumes and masks, owe more than a little debt to Sendak's street children in Really Rosie. The poems are ebullient and most, as in Marc Brown's Finger Rhymes (1980) and Hand Rhymes (1985, both Dutton), are traditional. Rhymes such as the familiar ``The Wheels on the Bus'' and ``I'm a Little Teapot'' are presented in the British version. Many of the rhymes are songs (``Down by the Station,'' ``One Elephant''), but no music is included. An acceptable collection, but it's not worthy of footstamping enthusiasm.
