These books, which have been slightly redesigned, will be welcomed by Scarry's many fans. In both tales, rhyme and reason are all but ignored. Rather, the stories are vehicles for Scarry's detailed and often quite silly slapstick scenes of Sam, Dudley, Lowly Worm, and friends in action. Review covers these titles: Richard Scarry's Find Your ABC's and Richard Scarry's Peasant Pig and the Terrible Dragon.
