Books with title Hickory Dickory Dead

Keith Baker displays his trademark flair for color, movement, and rhythm in this vibrant adaptation of the familiar nursery rhyme "Hickory Dickory Dock." A companion to his acclaimed Big Fat Hen, this twist on an old favorite features some serious antics on the part of a busy little mouse. As a huge grandfather clock strikes each hour from one o' clock in the afternoon to midnight, a different animal passes by, and the mouse has a funny interaction with each of them. With counting, telling time, and a cozy bedtime ending to engage them, children will be chiming in for repeated readings.

The mouse ran up the clock...But why would a little mouse do that? Maybe because it's playing hide-and-seek with Cat, Spider, Butterfly, and Robin! Wouldn't you like to join the game? Just help Mouse get a good hiding space--and attach the soft brown-and-white puppet (with little pink ears!) to the Velcro patch at the end. 16 pages (all in color), 8 x 8.
