Winters's two dozen brief poems cover a range of topics from a school bus to a drinking fountain, from common ailments (runny nose to chicken pox) to holidays. For the most part, the poems are an insubstantial lot, lacking fresh imagery or distinctive language. "Groundhog Day" and "Behind Closed Doors" do have a delightful sense of whimsy. Weston's pleasant pen-and-ink drawings ably complement the book's lighthearted tone. Overall, though, it's a less-than-memorable treatment of an ever-popular subject.?Marilyn Taniguchi, Santa Monica Public Library, CA Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.
