A toddler joyfully accompanies her mother on a walk to the park, in a rhyming tale illustrated by the artist of Monster Soup.

PreS?A mother and her exuberant preschooler share a walk filled with adventure and simple delights. From their initial steps under a "mellow yellow" sun, through the discovery of crawling ants, fluttering butterflies, and a fistful of treasures, there is much for them to see, to do. Lyrical, occasionally rhyming text reflects the energy of the outing, effectively mirroring the action. By journey's end the pace has slowed and lines are shortened as parent and child return home through their multiethnic and age-varied neighborhood. Finally, the child settles onto her mother's lap?ready for a nap. Rogers employs a familiar palette of soft watercolors, similar to those in George Shannon's Dancing the Breeze (Bradbury, 1991) and George Ella Lyon's Five Live Bongos (Scholastic, 1994). Large-type text is arranged within frames on each of the full-page paintings, sharing space with additional line drawings of the little girl in a variety of active postures. Although these thumbnail sketches may initially disrupt the story's flow, they offer a source of fresh interest during repeated readings. An appealing theme, lovely illustrations, and an age-appropriate format come together here to address successfully the need for more picture books with simple stories for board-book graduates.?Sarabeth Kalajian, Venice Public Library, FL
