A second big bouquet picked from the fields of modern British children's literature, presented to toddlers (Oxenbury's Tickle Tickle), picture book fans (Rosen's Little Rabbit Foo Foo) and older readers (an excerpt from E. Nesbit's ``Melisande''), and including a page from Where's Waldo? plus samples from several nursery rhyme collections; all strewn with illustrations broad (Colin McNaughton), brooding (Angela Barrett), and bumptious (Charlotte Voake). A fresh, lively mix of annuals and perennials, serendipitously arranged and varying widely in design, type size, and reading level. (Fiction. 0-10)
