Illustrated by
Tricia Tusa.
Monday is laundry day, Tuesday is for gardening, and so on through the week. Mrs. Jolly Bones tackles each job with gusto, her animal retinue eagerly pitching in. And who wouldn't want to do housework with this cheerful crew? Tusa's joyful watercolor and ink illustrations help set the pace and bring the infectious silliness of Hanson's cheeky rhyming text to a whole new level.
