(4) PS Illustrated by Anna Vojtech. Full-page color illustrations of cheery meadow animals accompany the text of this nineteenth-century rhyme. For readers familiar with other versions, some of the language may seem odd: e.g., mother beaver says, "Beave. / We beave said the ten." John Langstaff's adaptation of this rhyme, which includes music, remains a far superior selection.
