Publisher: Simon & Schuster/Paula Wiseman Books (September 23, 2008) and read it again! The luminous watercolor illustrations of these roly-poly little ones from a variety of backgrounds are adorable, quirky, and true to life, right down to the wrinkles, dimples, and pudges in their completely squishable arms, legs, and tummies.īy Sarah The Duchess of York Ferguson (Author), Robin Preiss Glasser (Illustrator) This is a gorgeously simple picture book for very young children, and once you finish the rhythmic, rhyming text, all you’ll want to do is go back to the beginning.
