ABOUT!
In this clever reworking of the classic folk song “Over in the Meadow,” readers meet villagers who spent their day spinning, cleaning, cooking, dancing, and more. The text counts up from one baby dragon to ten court jesters, and kids will enjoy counting along with each of the characters as they go about their daily work. At the end of the day, all the villagers look out their windows for a special surprise from their dragon neighbors. Readers will pore over illustrations filled with the same unexpected, warm humor of Boni Ashburn and Kelly Murphy’s first book, Hush, Little Dragon.
Wake up, dragons to a lovely day!
Reviews:
"Well-rhymed quatrains guide readers through a medieval landscape... Simple but richly textured oil and acrylic illustrations contain amusing details... A playful and comforting addition to storytimes." 
—School Library Journal
"Murphy's sun-drenched illustrations, featuring gentle humor and child-oriented characters,
beget a fanciful medieval world." 
—Publisher's Weekly
"...a rhythmic read-aloud...
beautifully illustrated, engaging picture book..."
—Jen Robinson's Book Page
