About the Author:
From School Library Journal:
David L. Harrison has written sixty books of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, including the Christopher Award-winning Book of Giant Stories. Harrison has received many honors, including Missouri State Reading Association's Celebrate
PreSchool-Grade 1–In this sequel to Farmer's Garden (Boyds Mills, 2000), a dog wanders the forest, greeting everything he sees with lines of singsong verse, such as Tortoise, Tortoise,/why so slow? or Tree, Tree,/You're so tall! Each one answers back, but these simplistic rhymed exchanges sound awkward and forced. For example, when observing that Owl looks out of sorts, Dog says, Last night if you/had gone to bed,/you wouldn't be so grumpy. Owl responds: I'd like to sleep/today instead./So you are making me/grumpy! Dog meets 14 animals and objects in all, before reuniting with the farmer. Each question/response is related in six lines of verse or less, and the dog's repetitive, insipid queries quickly lose their charm. The pastel illustrations are pleasant, but, at times, unformed and rather amateurishly composed. Pass on this flavorless offering.–Marilyn Taniguchi, Beverly Hills Public Library, CA
