The Saucepan Game

From School Library Journal PreSchool-- A black-haired, yellow-clad baby and a black cat explore the wealth of creative possibilities offered by a large saucepan. Once again, Ormerod succinctly captures the essence of the toddler experience. The large, clear shapes of the watercolor illustrations are boldly outlined in black against a plain white background and are easily focused upon by very young eyes. From the charming endpapers of the infant's face reflected in the side of the pan to the simple text and the expressive postures of child and cat, this volume offers a playful interlude of sharing between baby and parent or sibling. A book that's sure to send young listeners scurrying to the kitchen for the nearest saucepan. --Starr LaTronica, North Berkeley Library, CACopyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
