...I was unaware Ralph Bakshi drew for Sesame Street....

Everyone worked on Sesame Street. That's why it's filled with win.

But I may have to get that Snow book for my nieces. They need books.

I can also recommend, for the same age group, Stan and Jan Berenstain's Bike Lesson, which contains much sage advice for operators of any sort of vehicle. ("You come to a puddle. What should you do? Should you go around ... or ride right through?" [illustration of bicycle-riding bear up to his handlebars in said puddle] "It's not so good to ride right through.")

Mm, I'm not too keen on the Berenstein Bears. Dr. Suess and Suess-inspired books are good, though. :D Though I didn't like Suess myself until...college. My sense of whimsy in words didn't develop until around then.

This is the only Berenstain book I ever got into -- the later ones in particular strike me as over-cutesy. And I'm with you on Seuss! I don't think children can really appreciate his genius. I used to despise "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," but now it's one of my favorite Christmas pieces (both written and filmed -- Chuck Jones, Soooper-Genius! Must get his autobiography out of the library one of these days ...)
