(2) K-3 Illustrated by Maurice Sendak. In short poems, plays, and songs, Ruth Krauss displays an uncanny ability to capture the language of childhood: "I love the sun / I love a house / I love a river / And a hill where I watch / and a song I heard / and a dream I made." Sendak's pen-and-ink drawings enhance and amplify the minimal text in this welcome reissue.
Reviewer: Terri Schmitz | Horn Book Magazine Issue: December, 1954
