What's good for a five-year-old? Hanging ""updownside"" on the jungle gym, doing ""jigsore"" puzzles, hiding in big cardboard boxes, dressing up for Halloween--all kinds of things volunteered by kids in a kindergarten class, corrected when necessary by Miss Revere. As seen in shades of coral, olive and brown, the situations involve the weird and wild alongside the more probable, all with a slightly menacing cast. An impression of spontaneity, a session in Col(e)loquial rhyme.
