Book Description
for In the Tall, Tall Grass by Denise Fleming
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
As a small child inspects the busy world "in the tall, tall grass", she observes "crunch, munch, caterpillars lunch / dart, dip, hummingbirds sip" and a host of other insects, birds, reptiles, and rodents going about their business. Brightly colored, bold illustrations and a tight, well-chosen text of few words make this an ideal read-aloud. (Ages 2-5)
