PSHarper Growing Tree series.
Illustrated by
Melanie Hope Greenberg.
A young child observes familiar people at work and play as he and his mother stroll through their urban neighborhood. The rhymed text moves briskly and contains events of interest to the preschool audience. Active and engaged neighbors, such as "Hope with a jump rope" or "Mr. Sklar washing his car," are portrayed in the childlike pastel-toned illustrations.
