Charles Fuge has done it again! The celebrated author and illustrator (I Know a Rhino, Sometimes I Like to Curl Up in a Ball, and many others) invites kids on an imaginative journey with a little boy and some friendly animals. The trip's full of rhythm, rhyme, and color -- perfect for reading aloud and gazing at again and again.
Every page is bright with different hues, and each almost-musical refrain introduces a different animal, followed by the boy imitating that particular creature. He scurries like the mouse (“skittle, skittle, skuttle”); hurries like the ladybug (“beetle, battle, buttle”); and creeps like the anteater (“prod, snuffle, poke!”). Children will happily chime in, get moving, and start thinking about what other animals do too!
