I went walking.
What did you see?
I saw a black cat
Looking at me.

These catchy stanzas frolic through the Australian author Sue Williamss simple, funny read-aloud picture book that tracks a crazy-haired boys stroll through the countryside. The boy sees a black cat, then a brown horse, then a red cow, and so on, and before he knows it, hes being trailed by the entire menagerie! The Australian illustrator Julie Vivas brings the parade to life in lovely, lively watercolorswhen the pink pig looks at the boy, for example, the boy sprays off his muddy body with a hose. Big type, repetition, friendly art, clean designand the visual guessing game created by introducing each animal only partially at firstmake this beloved tale a winner at story time.
