| "Stand Back," Said the Elephant, "I'm Going to Sneeze!", by Patricia Thomas, illus. by Wallace Tripp | ||
| This book and "There Are Rocks in My Socks!" Said the Ox to
the Fox are both filled with fun and challenging alliteration and rhyme. Wallace
Tripp's illustrations make this book my personal favourite of the two. 30 pages | | |

the story to your children. The illustrations are full of interesting things to look at. 28 pages |  | |
