(4) PS Illustrated by Matthew Cordell. "Who are you young amphibians / delighting in shenanigans?" Energetic cartoonlike illustrations follow a lively group of just-hatched tadpoles as they stir up good-natured trouble in their pond home. They develop legs, lose their tails, and finally become frogs. The text's repeated message--"few of us grow up unchanged"--is hard to miss; an uneven rhyme detracts from this otherwise pleasant romp.
