From Booklist, Copyright © American Library Association. Used with permission.

Graceful iconographic zooms direct attention to the location of familiar nursery rhyme and folktale characters, who lie partially hidden in the visuals carefully adapted from the Ahlbergs' picture book (Viking, 1978). Barb Luby's musical score progresses from lullabies for Baby Bunting and flute music for Bo Peep to enhanced scales for Jack and Jill, all of which enrich the mood of the occasion and the fun of the search. With a circular sweep of the camera and a conclusion of the gentle, poetic reading of the familiar verses, this delightful presentation ends at a picnic enjoyed by all the characters. Welcome at story hours, this soothing program sharpens observation skills. Ages 3-6. ~--Nancy McCray
