BE GLAD YOUR EARS ARE WHAT THEY ARE!
Text: Barbara Hantman
Illustrations: Esther Leiper
What could catch a little one's fancy more than the whimsy of talented ears that have the ability to drive, dance, perform in a circus, fly and bake? Poet-author Barbara Hantman's witty, inventive text and illustrator Esther Leiper's rich, fun-loving primary color drawings take toddlers and other youngsters on a unique "ear journey" that culminates in a moral lesson about ultimately needing to choose common sense realityover fantasy particularly when it comes to listening to one's parents!
