(3) PS Illustrated by Josée Bisaillon. A flea awakened by midges takes a "leap!" into the path of a grasshopper, activating a series of jumps by a rabbit, dog, frog, etc. The flea reappears for the final leap then nestles back to sleep, bringing the poetic text full circle. The summery landscape and its animal denizens are depicted in the mixed-media illustrations with a liveliness that echoes the energy of the active-verb text.
