Bunting, Eve

Hey Diddle Diddle

(3) PS Illustrated by Mary Ann Fraser. Apparently the cat isn't the only musical prodigy: Bunting has altered the classic nursery rhyme to include a lion flutist, a cow trombonist, a whale drummer, and so on ("Hey diddle dar, / the horse strums guitar, / the pig plays piano with grace..."). Fraser's acrylics reflect the menagerie's musical prowess and enhance the surprise ending's payoff.
