Now in an archival quality Brodart cover. NOT Ex-library. NO remainder marks. Wonderful brightly colored illustrations by Niland. [From front jacket flap] This is a delightful book for the very young, depicting, in vibrant colours, elements of a baby's world - my rocking horse, my mama, my father, my garden, my bed. Each superb painting is accompanied by a simple and charming verse describing the child's-eye view of familiar surroundings. A joyful addition to any nursery library - for parent-child sharing or just as a quiet reading experience.
