Miss Polly Has A Dolly
PreSchool-Grade 1-A traditional street chant has been given an expanded lyric and music in this picture book. Each page has one line of rhyme that dances and stretches across the page. Children will have lots of fun as they sing, chant, and clap along with the rhythmic text. "Miss Polly has a dolly who is sick, sick, sick/She calls for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick!" Music and lyrics appear on the front and back endpapers, along with finger-play motions. Paint, collage, and computer graphics create simple figures and lots of patterns, all in a palette of light blues, yellows, and greens with splashes of primary color. The text swirls and curves over the page with lines and small drawings that suggest a small child's doodling. Perfect for storytime, this title can be read aloud as a story, sung or chanted with a group, or simply shared between adult and child.Jane Marino, Bronxville Public Library, NYCopyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.
