She'll Be Comin' 'round the Mountain

(3) PS Illustrated by Ashley Wolff. In this adaptation of the classic folksong, a bevy of southwestern animals from the town of Reederville prepare a feast for the arrival of a guest--that is, when they're not taking a break to read a book. The galloping lilt of the text is made fresh with clever wordplay and references to Mexican cuisine and music. Librarians will be especially delighted once the guest's identity is revealed.
