Candace Fleming is the versatile author of Muncha! Muncha! Muncha!, When Agnes Caws, and Gabriella's Song, all American Library Association notable books; as well as Ben Franklin's Almanac, a biography of the great American and a Junior Library Guild selection. She lives with her husband and two sons in a suburb of Chicago.
PreSchool-Grade 2--Baby Lily is inconsolable. One by one, each member of her family tries to stop her tears with lullabies, tickles, a diaper change, food, and toys. However, the refrain points up each one's failure to comfort the tot: "But Lily keeps on crying. Waa! Waa! Waa! Lily keeps on crying. Oh, who knows what to do?" Finally her brother smiles his biggest smile and in the cozy ending, Lily grins back at him. The bouncy, rhythmic text begs to be read aloud, and the artwork is a perfect match. Done in oils, pencil, and collage, the illustrations are filled with Heo's familiar bright colors, and the playful shapes, forms, and details leap off the pages. Each spread plays with perspective and offers surprising views of the action and characters. Frieda Wishinsky's Oonga Boonga (Dutton, 1999) portrays a similar situation but lacks the verve of Smile, Lily! This satisfying, buoyant picture book will appeal to beginning readers as well as to storytime groups or during one-on-one sharing.--Marge Loch-Wouters, Menasha's Public Library, WI
