Jan Omerod, who also illustrated Sky Dancer by Jack Bushnell, lives in Cambridge, England.
PreSchool-This newly illustrated edition of Buckley's charming hide-and-seek story (1962; o.p.) is perfect for preschool storytimes. The rhythmic text is only slightly changed and works well as a read-aloud or one on one. Ormerod's full-color illustrations are sunny and cheerful. They show Josie's father and pregnant mother pretending to search for the little girl everywhere but the right place, while Josie can be seen hiding in each picture. Her dog, cat, and older brother gradually discover her whereabouts by following the trail of leaves and flowers that she drops as she sneaks from place to place. Eventually, everyone ends up together outside in the hammock, sleepily hugging and cuddling. This joyous picture book is greatly enhanced by the new artwork. Even libraries that have the old version should treat themselves to it.
