"If you’ve been a child, had a child or known a child in the last 40
years, you’ve met a Boynton book. More than likely, you have counted,
sung and ABC-ed along with her bewildered cows, bright pigs and sullen
ducks. You’ve danced the Barnyard Dance. You’ve barked dramatically in
the voice of all 10 of the dogs in “Doggies.” Even if you’ve read these
books 10,000 times, the child nestled beside you asks you to read them
again."
