Dreamtime: A Book of Lullabies

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Robin Bell Corfield. Even though the little ones are supposed to have their eyes closed while you whisper "Hushabye my darling / Don't you make a peep," give them a chance to look at the dreamy twilit sketches in this veddy English--and very pretty--collection of go-to-sleep verses. Selections both familiar and new, from the famous and the folk, are included. But the real draw is Corfield's pictures of sleepy babes and pastoral landscapes.
