Following up his successful books on homonyms (A Chocolate Moose for Dinner, The King Who Rained, The Sixteen Hand Horse), Gwynne allows a bewildered girl to narrate some perplexing developments. "Grandma says our four bears came from Scotland" is paired with a picture of four bears in kilts, doing a Highland fling. That's but one of the amusing twists of the language that Gwynne illustrates with the literal-minded images of a child. With a rapid-fire pace, this is fun and inventive fare for all ages.Gwynne, Fred is the author of 'Little Pigeon Toad' with ISBN 9780671666590 and ISBN 0671666592.
