Illustrated by
Randy Cecil.
A chick, awed by the beauty of the world, breaks into song but is swallowed by a fox. To his horror, the fox finds himself spouting the chick's cheerful song and is eaten by an irritated wolf, who in turn starts singing--and the chain of song-infected sufferers begins. Jaunty, lushly colored paintings wring every possible bit of humor out of the goofy situation in this hugely amusing read-aloud.
