Carry Me!

the long version

PreSchool-Grade 1–Sweet, signature watercolors highlight three poems told from a small bunny's point of view. Carry Me! Talk to Me! and Sing to Me! express the animal's desires: to be held close by a loving parent, read to, sung to, and told stories. Each picture, mainly in soft pastel hues, exemplifies a moment of shared happiness between child and parents. The paintings, generally one to a page, are on a background of white and are framed with a simple blue line. The book speaks for all young children who yearn to be included in their parents' lives. The lucky bunny in this book is well loved by patient, caring adults and appears to be the center of their world.–Maryann H.
