Brown, Margaret Wise

The Friendly Book

(3) PS Illustrated by Garth Williams. Williams's trademark animals crowd double-page spreads enumerating things the narrator likes: "I like trains / Express trains / Toy trains / Streamline trains / Freight trains / Old trains / Milk trains" as well as cars, snow, bugs, fish, whistles, and several other categories of favorite things. The illustrations are packed with details for children to pore over.
