(3) K-3 In this entertaining book, Edwards presents a gallery of elaborate animal paintings with sly one-sentence captions. Each picture offers a humorously literal interpretation of idioms such as "cool your heels," "hold your tongue," or "frog in your throat." As a bonus, readers can enjoy searching for the cat hidden in every mixed-media illustration. Explanations of the twenty-six expressions are appended.
