On the Morn of Mayfest

32 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-689-80674-4
(4) K-3 Using "The House That Jack Built" formula, a sleepwalking girl is joined by a dove and a collection of others who come to the Mayfest celebration. When the milkmaid kisses the minstrel, the kiss travels backward until it reaches the dove who, quite unbelievably, hatches an egg and wakes the girl. Detailed ink and watercolor illustrations show the quirky parade.
