Mary Had a Little Lamb: A Colors Book
by Jarvis
Mary's woolly friend is joined by a colorful (and noisy) entourage in a funny first concept board book by the inimitable Jarvis.
Everyone knows that Mary had a little companion, with fleece as white as snow. Baaa! But did you know that an orange tiger trailed them? Raar! And a pink dancing hippo, too? Fa-la-la-la-la! And who is that red fellow swinging on a vine, or those blue bears blowing on horns? With a bright array of colors and a cacophony of sound words, this cumulative twist on a classic rhyme will have children clamoring to follow along.
