Some gorgeous art, but the verses are basically just captions. There's no plot, but only a theme of 'animals in things.' Some are matter-of-fact, and others are almost surreal. I'd give the text one star, and the book as a whole 3 *if* the majority of the pictures were not only lovely but interesting....

Not a lot to this one, but would be a fun write-alike starter.

Cute little poem about a variety of animals living and playing.

Lovely illustrations.
