PreSchool-K ``Oh Dear!'''' is young Buster''s response each time that
his search for eggs on his grandmother''s farm is futile. The
pattern is the same throughout his search: he looks in the barn, or
sty, or pond, where a flap can be lifted to reveal the animal that
lives there, making the sound associated with it. The animal is not
labeled, so young listeners are called upon to make the
identification themselves. When Buster finally tries the henhouse,
a second flap reveals the eggs beneath the hen. The book has an
attractive, open look, with much white space and clear, large type.
The animals and farmyard scenes are large, simple forms in bright
colors. Unfortunately, Buster and his grandmother are doll-like in
their circle heads, dot eyes, and red-spotted cheeks, and do not
hold the same appeal. Lift-the-flap books are a gimmick that
children love, but these flaps are particularly fragile, and each
is hinged in a different place. Eager hands tugging at them will
easily result in a cry of ``Oh dear!'''' before too long. David Gale,
