(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ingrid Schubert & Dieter Schubert. In the singer-songwriter's first picture book, a mouse, bored with his life, stows away on a ship and has an encounter that makes him appreciate what he had. The lyrics don't quite work without the accompanying CD--the rhyming text's rhythms can be elusive, and some lines pointlessly repeat--but there's pleasure in Ian's punchy language and the verging-on-surreal illustrations. Sheet music included.
