BOOK REVIEW:
A-TISKET A-TASKET, a traditional song illustrated by Sylvia Ion, becomes a sweet
story with valentine-like illustrations. After laboring over his letter of
love, the envelope immediately slips from our young boy's basket. As he is
leaving the house, his companion, a dove, spies it. On the boy's journey,
he is distracted by caterpillars, frogs, and he even delays his mission to do a
little fishing. When he finally meets his love interest, she is surprised
to receive a basket full of caterpillars, frogs and fish instead of the letter.
The dove saves the day by swooping onto the scene and delivering the letter to
the little red-haired girl.
