(3) K-3 Illustrated by John Schoenherr. Brother, then Sister, Mama, and Papa climb out of their Model T to clear the "rud," as they say in rural Maine, first of pigs, then of hens, sheep, and bulls. Finally, Grandma shoos them all with just the right phrase. The rollicking rhyming text and bustling watercolors make for an uproarious reading experience.
