Description
"Cock a Doodle Doo: A Book of Sounds" by Ed Emberley, published by Little & Brown, Boston, 1964. First edition.
Hard boards, illustrated cloth, 5" x 6.1/2"; pink endpapers, unpaginated, 32 pages on grayish heavy stock paper, each duble-page is a woodcut by the author. A little wear, very good condition.
Woodcut illustrations of various animals and insects, making their own particular sounds--a frog going "croak," a cricket going "creek, creek," or an owl saying "whoo."
"It's a downright sly affair that leads the junior larynx through buzzes, cheeps, roars — all the sounds of barnyard and jungle. At the laryngitis point, the book ends with its only line of text "Butterflies are very quiet". (And so to bed?) Each page is a colorful woodcut of a variety of animals with the appropriate noises urged. Good looking and likely to be effective." [from a review]
