PS
Tasked with going to the shops, Vincent loses his mom's grocery list in his haste to get there and back quickly. In an effort to recall the items, he distractedly repeats them until carrots, rice, tea, pear, and peas become parrots, mice, chimpanzees, bear, and trapeze. Energetic watercolors and a dynamic text deliver this silly nonsense read-aloud.
