(3) K-3 Illustrated by Bob Graham. Wind-up toy soldier A-One is very bossy and rather rude. Enlisting fellow toys to help wind his key, he tells them they are "no good...so bad...the worst." They, in turn, jumble his words into silly-sounding nonsense ("bad-so, worst-so, and good-no"). Soon A-One can't help but join in their word games. Pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations humorously display the scenes of toys at play.
Reviewer: Carrie Harasimowicz Sullivan
