Media Reviews
Schertle''s (All You Need for a Beach) rhyming stanzas are succinct, and she gives readers plenty of opportunities to chime in with animal and vehicle noises; colored, standout fonts highlight these sounds for extra effect. McElmurry''s (Mad About Plaid) gouaches recall the heyday of Golden Books in their combination of vividness, navet and sweetness, and her rich palette achieves verisimilitude that is no less satisfying for being nostalgic. --Publishers Weekly, starred review (4/28/08)
