Written in simple poetic verse and illustrated in full color with a warm, realistic style, Know What I Saw? is both a counting book and an expression of wonder of the everyday joys and miracles of life in the country. A young girl travels around the local country farm seeing animals of all shapes, sizes and numbers to marvel about. With its rhythmic lyrics and adventurous attitude, Know What I Saw? is a delight to read aloud to the very young. "Know what I saw / when we drove the car / Into the country / rather far? // 2 deer jumping / black hooves thumping - / graceful to look at / as wild deer are. // Know what I thought / when I sat on a stone / all by myself / by myself all alone? // That I wouldn't be lonley / if only... if only / I had 1 puppy to call my own, / a pert little puppy / to call my own.
