One Wide Sky: A Bedtime Lullaby
PreSchool-Two young squirrels gather food while three children prepare for backyard camping. Verses count objects from 1 to 10, and then back down again, with no music included for this "lullaby." Full-spread oils on canvas show a green, woodsy area from a variety of angles. Some of the objects to be counted are very small, and not all of them are immediately or easily identified. Some items are partially off the page, and in one line readers will have to use their imagination to find three kisses. Much better counting books and bedtime stories are available.Kathleen Simonetta, Indian Trails Public Library District, Wheeling, ILCopyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.
