(3) PS This tale features pond animals in action, from green frogs to great blue herons. Its constant, though, is "six silent turtles" that "sit still as stones" on a log--until story's end. Alliteration, rhyme, and a pleasant rhythm create effectively spare text, while bright collages present the animals, vegetation, and water artfully and accurately. An author's note about nature study is appended.
