Illustrated by Tamara Joubert
The platform on the carousel runs round and round. Round and round. Round and round. The platform on the carousel runs round and round as the colorful poles go up and down.
Join Peg the Pig and her friends at the zoo for a magical ride on the carousel! As the animals climb aboard, the colorful carousel begins to twirl and whirl. Giraffes, pandas, penguins, and pigs all take turns on the spinning horses and chariots.
With each spin, hear the joyful whoops and hollers of the excited creatures and watch them dance and play. This delightful book, inspired by the classic tune "The Wheels on the Bus," will have young readers giggling and singing along as they follow the animals on their carousel adventure.
"Set to the tune of The Wheels on the Bus, the rhythmic text invites children to sing along, creating an interactive experience. Each page introduces new animal friends on the carousel in a way so that young readers may anticipate each verse and engage with the fun, repetitive structure. Joubert’s illustrations are truly exceptional, featuring a soft, detailed color palette that gives the images a unique textured quality, making each scene come to life. Together, the tale and the beautifully crafted artwork make this book a great choice for storytime. Very highly recommended."
