"Over in the meadow . . ." begins each of ten catchy rhymes based on a children's song and comprising exchanges between a mother animal and her offspring--from one turtle to ten rabbits. At book's end, readers are invited to count the babies in each family as they romp in the same meadow. Each cheerful two-page scene is slathered in primary- and secondary-colored paint and reminiscent of children's artwork.
