The Little Dog Laughed
A freshly conceived treatment of more than fifty entries explodes the prevailing idea communicated by conventional nursery rhyme books. These bold, vibrant forms and figures are far from precious. They definitely are not lily white. They contribute to waking up, to opening one's eyes literally and figuratively. The mood is carefree, the characters bear mixed racial images and the humor throughout is delightful. ©1990 Cooperative Children's Book Center
