nonfiction stories TIGRESS, THE EMPEROR'S EGG, and ONE TINY TURTLE, and the rollicking counting book ONE DUCK STUCK. She lives in England.
From Booklist:
nonfiction stories TIGRESS, THE EMPEROR'S EGG, and ONE TINY TURTLE, and the rollicking counting book ONE DUCK STUCK. She lives in England.
PreS. With clear, bright acrylic pictures, Chapman brings an action-packed collection to preschoolers. She includes three popular fairy tales ("The Little Red Hen," "Goldilocks," and "The Three Little Pigs") as well as many nursery rhymes. Toddlers may want to act out the characters' bumbling falls in "Humpty Dumpty," pictured opposite "Jack and Jill"; the rides in "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and "Ride a Cock Horse"; and the jumps in "Hey Diddle, Diddle" and "Jack Be Nimble." Of course, each rhyme is fine on its own, too, and the stories are told in lively detail. The type is large and clear, and lots of boisterous pictures decorate the big, spacious pages. There's plenty of interactive fun for parents to share during lap sits. Use this with selections from Zita Newcome's Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes (2002) for a rollicking good time. Hazel Rochman
