Baby Rhyme Time series.
Illustrated by
Annie Kubler
&
Sarah Dellow.
Bouncy babies and toddlers cavort in this catchy play rhyme that scans well in English and Spanish. Kubler and Dellow's cartoon tots, who wear bold colors and charming prints, perform each line of the verse against a white background. One welcome aspect of the entire Baby Rhyme Time series, often available in bilingual editions, is its inclusive diversity. In this offering, youngsters see a range of skin tones, a child wearing a hearing aid on the cover, and a tot with a therapeutic helmet. A Haitian Creole version, Fè Yon Ti Sote! / Hop a Little!, is forthcoming. For more bilingual offerings, try The Fruit Shop / La frutería and The Flower Shop / La florería (Candlewick) by Lourdes Heuer, illustrated by Zara González Hoang.
