Little Poems for Tiny Ears

(3) PS Illustrated by Tomie dePaola. From a sneeze ("A sneeze / Is a breeze / In / Your / Nose") to a blankie ("Without my blankie, / Me so cranky") to a bath ("Rubber duckies, floating books, / Suds and bubbles, happy looks"), these twenty-three brief poems observe ordinary things in a young child's world with humor and freshness. Each poem is framed with a bright border and accompanied by dePaola's sweet, distinctive acrylics.
