The illustrations and the story were charming. I very much like to see illustrated images of snow. In this story, the park ranger has a cute little cottage. He shares his means with a lot of the critters.

One stormy, snowy night when the animals are packed in the cold snow, they knock of the ranger's door for compfort and saftey.

One little animal lead to another, to another and then to others. There were so many animals that the bed could not contain all of them.

I liked this one for the sheer story of the kind-hearted ranger.… (mere)

Percy the park keeper feeds all the animals in the park where he lives. All the animals know where Percy’s cozy little house is and one night a squirrel knocks at the door. He tells Percy that his bed is full of snow! Percy invites him to come inside. Soon two rabbits, a fox, a badger, two ducks, a hedgehog, and a whole family of mice come along wanting to join the squirrel in Percy's warm bed.

Percy’s bed is too small for so many animals.

What will Percy do? How will all the animals stay warm? And where will they all sleep?

=========

This charming bedtime story will entertain young readers. The targeted audience, ages two through six, will enjoy sharing the story with a grown-up. Giggles are sure to accompany the delightful story. The enchanting illustrations that accompany the story are sure to appeal to young and old alike.

Highly recommended.

The humorous illustrations and the illustrated first letter of each rhyme makes this a fun nursery rhyme book. I love looking at the pictures as much as the child with me.
