(4) PS Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Cristina Kadmon. Sebastian the turtle's father explains some of the things a father does for his children, using other animals as examples: "A father shows his children how to hop from stalk to stalk in the cornfield." While kids won't learn any science lessons (many of the animal fathers mentioned don't raise their young), they might enjoy guessing each animal from the clues Father gives as well as from the cheerful illustrations.
