Baby, Come Away

(3) PS Illustrated by David Walker. One by one, a bird, cat, dog, and fish urge a toddler to come and play. Each animal offers its own brand of entertainment; the fish, for example, says, "Let's glide side by side / In the ocean wide. / We'll sink down deep / Where the mermaids sleep..." Childlike pastel-colored illustrations complement the jaunty verses and contribute to the book's lighthearted atmosphere.
