Reviews

Quill and Quire

These are, indeed, a pleasant introduction to the world of books.

Children's Literature

It is evening as a menagerie of stuffed animals follow the cat playing the fiddle along the road away from town. The cow does jump over the moon and the dog gets his laugh, but in a real switch, it is the pigs who grab the cake on a plate and a spoon thus giving a new twist to the line, "And the dish ran away with the spoon." The characters all appear to be stuffed animals in this contemporary look for an old tale. Other companion books include Little Miss Muffet, Jack and Jill and Pat-A-Cake. 2003, Kids Can Press,
