"When I grow up, I will build you a house so big there will be escalators to go up to all the floors. One floor will be a museum with dinosaur bones. There will be a zoo on the roof!"
These are only a few of the marvels a little boy promises to give his mother in Joan Lexau's charming tale. With insight and humor Miss Lexau has created an enticing fantasy world in which young readers will recognize some of their own dreams and desires, and some they may never have dreamed of.
The exuberant four-color pictures by Fritz Siebel perfectly capture the excitement of these joyous imaginings.
