Beach Is to Fun: A Book of Relationships

36 pp. | Holt | June, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-7315-9 $$16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sachiko Yoshikawa. "Night is to moon / as day is to sun," begins two siblings' rhyming, seaside romp through the world of analogies. A day at the beach serves as a suitable backdrop for exploring linguistic relationships, but, while the analogies are correctly constructed, the device grows a bit tiresome. Energetic, brightly hued illustrations add a hint of whimsy to each word pair.
