When Mama takes Micah to the toy store to buy a new bunny, he sees many new animals. But none of them can compare with Bunny Rabbit. Micah loves his rabbit, tattered and worn as she is, above all others. There s more to a toy than what meets the eye. Songs of Summer By Jane Yolen and Adam Stemple Summer pleasures are joyfully set to music, celebrating all of the sunny sights and sounds.
Whimsical illustrations add to the merriment.
When I was a kid, I didn t own a lot of books. In the summer, the public library book mobile, which was a lot like a camper with shelves filled with books, would come around to the farm houses in the country every week. We could check out about 10 books every week. I would get my 10, read them over and over, and then I would draw the pictures. I also drew comic strips from the newspaper.
