Within a sentence, this book takes the reader to the edge of a meadow thick with flowers. He must cross a bridge to reach it, but once safely on the other side, he can stretch and look about. Refocusing his senses, the child is free to listen to a crow's call, pat the old cow Daisy who is munching contemplatively away, notice the rustle of a mouse in the grass...and learn the first of many curious things about this 'holiday meadow.' A refreshing read.
