Baa-Choo! (I Can Read Book 1)
K-Gr. 1. Like Lola Schaefer'sLoose Toothon p.1944, this book in the An I Can Read Book series plays as much with the sounds of words as with common physical experience. Sam the lamb has a cold, but he can't sneeze. He's on the verge; he's got theahhh.But he can't do thechoo.The rhyming nonsense words and colorful, comical barnyard pictures show various animals trying to help Sam end his sneeze, which he finally does in a rip-roaring sneezy climax "that raised the roof and shook the trees." Now that's power. Then there's the joke on the last page, when Sam thanks his friends: "Bless you!"Hazel RochmanCopyright © American Library Association.
