A Band of Babies

(4) PS Illustrated by Jane Dyer. A newcomer galvanizes a gang of bored babies in a gentle wish-fulfillment tale for the toddler set. Grabbing instruments, plump babies parade down the street to ransack a market for snacks before naptime. Their adventures are told in metered rhyme and depicted in soft, textured colored pencil against white backgrounds. Less musical than title and cover art promise, but suitable for reading aloud.
