PRESCHOOL
Mayhew, James

Starlight Sailor

(4) PS Illustrated by Jackie Morris. "I wish I had a little boat! / Far away I drift and float, / Where the great blue whales leap, / And pirate ships lie sunken deep." Morris's illustrations of a child's dreamland are a visual lullaby, with lilting images of sea creatures and sandcastles. Mayhew's couplets, though occasionally clunky, are sure to soothe toddlers to sleep.
