More Ant and Bee

My children, ages 5 and 3, always want to be read Ant and Bee books when we go to visit Grandma and Grandpa. The palm-sized Ant and Bee books are my books, ones that I read ragged when I was their age. My children's favorites, and mine, are Ant and Bee and the Rainbow, which is in print again, and this one, More Ant and Bee, which is not. I hope More Ant and Bee will be reprinted. Like all Ant and Bee books, it has a sweet story about two friends, Ant and Bee, and a quaint, slightly old-fashioned air about it. In this book, the friends set off to find the hottest country in the world, and proceed on their adventure, encountering curious people and objects in alphabetical order: a KING who is sad because a LION is demanding to be fed MILK for example. The book's progress is ostensibly alphabetical, but its whimsical free association is what lends it charm. In the end, Ant and Bee are back home again, wearing warm VESTS and awaiting XMAS. I think my children appreciate the quirkiness of the book and its warm nostalgia as much as I do. I await its reprinting.
