(4) PS Illustrated by Marsha Winborn. Each in a series of animals imparts a different "magic word" to Little Bird: a cow says it's "Moo-moo," a pig says it's "Oink-oink," etc. Finally Little Bird's mother teaches him a magic word that will be familiar to even the youngest human reader. DiPucchio's benign rhymes, like Winborn's pastel-hued art, exhibit a certain amount of panache--and hokiness.
