Down in Mississippi

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Katherine Zecca. The state flora and fauna of Mississippi are highlighted in this adaptation of the counting song "Over in the Meadow." The new verses occasionally strain to fit the song's original meter. Expressive illustrations emphasize the beauty of the iconic plants and wildlife, including the magnolia tree, red fox, mockingbird, swallowtail, and white-tailed deer. More information on the featured species and musical arrangement appended.
