      PreS-Gr 1 -The traditional nursery rhyme is expanded into a lively story when pesky insects and animals invade the garden. -Oh, how we love to pull up roots, /Nibble on fresh and tender shoots, /Fill up on plump and juicy fruits, /In spring when plants are growing. - No amount of fencing deters the scavengers that jump over, tunnel under, and slink through holes in the netting; raccoons easily open the gate. So, in the end, all of the animals feast on a bumper crop while the good-natured gardener throws up her hands and sings, -Here we go -round the mulberry bush -& -Round and -round each year! - Humorous, whimsical watercolors depict the devious crew stealing off with the bounty and outwitting the human who seems resigned, yet again. A good choice for reading aloud." -Sally R. Dow, Ossining Public Library, NY"

      A number of wild critters, such as rabbits, mice, deer, and raccoons, eat a garden's luscious vegetables despite the gardener's persistent efforts to restrict access to the bountiful harvest. The rhyming text (forced in places) expands on the traditional song. Gentle, lively watercolor illustrations chronicle the actions of the pesky critters and the diligent gardener. Lyrics and music are included.
