Knick-Knack Paddywhack!

By Paul O. Zelinsky
Illustrated by Paul O. Zelinsky

Numbers and nonsense have never been so much fun as they are in this brilliant moving-parts book by Caldecott Medalist Paul O. Zelinsky, creator of the beloved Wheels on the Bus. A young boy sets out on a walk - pull the tabs and tiny old men from One to Ten act out the familiar refrain of the traditional counting song on and all around him. Here, as dogs chase bones and old men roll home, paper doesn't simply pop up - it seems virtually animated. The spectacular numerical extravaganza of motion at the end gives a whole new meaning to the idea of playing knick-knack. A tour de force of humor and paper engineering.
