(4) PS Illustrated by Emily Arnold McCully. Tired of "One, two, buckle my shoe"? The parent of a young elephant counts out the pleasure the two will share ("3, 4, dip and pour / oceans from a pail. / We might catch a mermaid / with a swishy fish's tail"). Some of the rhymes stall, but they're all ebullient--a quality aided and abetted by the book's joyful watercolors.
