Inside the Little Old Woman's Shoe
Charles Reasoner. Price Stern Sloan, $7.99 (12pp) ISBN 978-0-8431-0472-1
A pair of hand-sized Magic Picture Books by Sue King utilize lenticular screens that change images when readers tilt the books. Wake Up follows a boy (and his dog and cat) as he rises, washes up and gets ready for playtime. Simple text accompanies images that shift to show him at the sink, then lifting his washcloth; opening his window, etc. The same boy attends to his nighttime rituals in Time for Bed. King, attuned to her audience, gives readers a chance to retrace the boy's steps in the second title. (Apr.)
