In this concept book, rhyming text describes two friends who meet up at the park. Following a predictable pattern ("One bird, two eggs, / One girl, two legs"), the text counts single items and pairs, each easily found in the art. Cut-paper collages employ a wide range of colorfully patterned and textured paper that will have viewers poring over the details.
