title: A Child's Day: An Alphabet of Play
author:  Ida Pearle 
description: PreSchool-KThis simple, attractive alphabet of action words and pictures depicts children engaged in play and other activities. "Act," "blow," "catch," "dance" are just a few of the featured activities; youngsters also "unite," "view," "whistle," and "mark the spot" (X). The letters appear in both upper- and lowercase. The design is particularly effective. Large, colorful cut-paper collages of multiethnic children feature interesting patterns that stand out against solid backgrounds. Tie-dye-like endpapers are inviting as well. A good choice for the very young.<i>Sally R.

  Hayley’s parents disappeared when she was a baby.
  
  
  Since then, she has been raised and homeschooled by her
  
  
  grandparents. Grandad is overworked and travels a lot;
  
  
  Grandma is much too strict, and never lets her meet any
  
  
  children her own age. When Hayley does something
