Very bright and colorful and I like the use of different patterns on the children's clothing. Drawings are whimsical and have a floating feeling. It is a "building on" story like "This is the house that Jack Built" or "There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly," with rhyming, repetition and alliteration. Fun to read aloud for story time or rhyme time. Would be fun for each child to have a line and say it as the story builds and continue with that line with the group reading aloud all through the story. Wonderful book! ( )

The story of Isabella's garden told to the rhyme of "The House That Jack Built." Lovely, vibrant illustrations. ( )

This is a lovely book full of fun language and beautiful illustrations. It's a cumulative story so it's a joy to repeat the language. ( )
