Illustrated by
Emily Bolam.
After his beloved balloon pops, donkey Buzzy first mourns it, then moves on to play with a favorite (and un-pop-able) stuffed animal. The rhymes are only passable, but toddlers may find succor in this lighthearted take on coping with loss. With his boldly colored possessions and thick-black-outlined body, Buzzy could be an extra from one of Lucy Cousins's Maisy books.
