Illustrated by
Vladimir Radunsky.
A strongly child-centered text with an onomatopoeic chorus describes plans to build a house for "our pretty little baby-o." Radunsky's vibrant collages show two children and some animals using tools and playing house. The last two spreads and the endpapers feature children's drawings, perhaps of the characters seen on the preceding pages. The melody and guitar chords of Guthrie's song are on the inside of the dust jacket.
