Children's Literature
In this well-constructed board book, a ribbon is attached to a vehicle driven by Little Blue Cat. When the ribbon is pulled, the vehicle bounces as it would on a rough road. And since Little Blue Cat is on a safari, the roads are indeed rough. The lesson is about opposites and in the outing, little ones will meet thin birds and fat hippos, long crocodiles and short lizards, hairy monkeys and smooth snakes, quiet tortoises and noisy parrots, and in the final spread, a big elephant and little ants. Fun and educational. Others in the series include colors, numbers and sounds. 2100, Pinwheel/Sterling, $4.95. Ages 18 mo. to 4. Reviewer: Marilyn Courtot
