Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush by Iza Trapani
Sometimes you just happen upon a book that you know is going to become a favorite. This was the case when I found this book at the library.
Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush by Iza Trapani is a take-off on the traditional nursery song. She develops it and makes it into a hilarious tale of what happens when a gardener tries to deal with the animals intent on taking over her garden. Told alternately from the point of view of the gardener and the animals, it is a clever telling with great illustrations.
If you garden and battle the creatures, you will love this book. And even if you don’t, you’ll still appreciate the humor.
