Two Sticks

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Wilsdorf. She's got the sticks and the rhythm--all Maybelle needs is a drum. When she brings home eleven crocodiles (as drum substitutes), her parents beg her to "choose any drum, my dear... / Just get them out of here NOW!" The staccato rhyming text has energy but can be tongue-twisting; the action-packed illustrations enhance the silly plot.
