PreSchool-Grade 3-This alphabetical compendium, from "anthem and accordion" to "zydeco, zither, and all forms of zippy music," takes a look at the people and things that make us sing. Krull displayed her love and knowledge of music in Gonna Sing My Head Off (Knopf, 1995) and Lives of the Musicians (Harcourt, 1993). Here, she offers both abstract and concrete terms to illustrate each letter. For example, "Ee is for Elvis, energy, and encore." Within the artwork are the words electric guitar, echo, elevator music, and ear, the last word appearing as if it were the call letters for a radio station, circa 1930, perched above a microphone shaped to suggest an ear. The jazzy oil-and-acrylic collage assemblages include humorous touches to reinforce the concepts. The range of words explored is almost as vast as the world of music itself, with figures as diverse as Frank Zappa and Hildegard and musical genres as different as ragtime and klezmer included in the mix. This book will make a great companion to Lloyd Moss's

Next, the animals find clever ways to reconcile their dissimilarities: Mole presents Mouse with some candles to use when she visits, and she gives him a pair of sunglasses. In the final entry, Mole surprises Mouse with a rowboat. Although it's missing an oar, they manage to have fun. The next day, Mouse has a surprise of her own–a new paddle to make A pair…like you and me! The expressive bamboo-pen and waterco
