(4) PS Illustrated by Laura J. Bryant. Quattlebaum's text, set to "Old MacDonald," acquaints children with the sights and sounds they might encounter around a pond: "And at that pond she saw a dragonfly... / With a whir-whir here / And a whir-whir there..." Bryant's watercolors show a little girl interacting with nature. Pictures and text are entirely bland but somewhat useful; appended notes tell more about "The Pond Community." Reading list, websites.
