Miss Polly has a dolly who is sick, sick, sick She calls for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick Children have been chanting "Miss Polly Had a Dolly" for centuries. But the original rhyme only had eight lines. Now for the first time, Pamela Duncan Edwards expands on the original to answer the question of what happens next (they all go out for ice cream when Dolly is feeling better) . Newcomer Elicia Castaldi gives Miss Polly an amazing new look that perfectly matches the spunky rhythm of the text. Musical arrangement (for piano and guitar) with finger play instructions are included on the endpapers, so kids can sing along and act out the words.
I bought this book to use in my home preschool in a literature based learning program. It's a perfect book for my age group 2-3 year olds but would also work for older kids up to 6 or 7 years. We loved the rhythm and rhymes. They were easy for my kids to pick up and now they say the words along with me when I read it. Definately a favorite around here.
