A delightful romp through Ms. MacDonald's classroom
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
With "Ms. MacDonald Has a Class," author and illustrator Jan Ormerod has taken the old classic children's tune (complete with "E-I-E-I-O" chorus) and transplanted the entire thing to a preschool or kindergarten class in which the students study animals to get ready for portraying those same animals in the school play.The rhythm of the text follows the Old MacDonald tune, as you might imagine. What makes the book special is that the illustrations have the same gaiety and bounciness that the tune does, melding them beautifully together. Color and shape and movement abound here, all culminating in a performance before family and friends that perfectly captures the energy of children this age. This book is such fun and a big success for Ms. Ormerod--it is that rare young children's book that is quite bountifully more than the sum of its parts.
