White Rabbit's Color Book by Alan Baker5/27/2023 Baker's exquisite illustrations cannot fail to captivate, although they seem a bit static, as if the subjects are posing for photographs rather than going about their daily endeavors. There is a pleasing continuity as the mice scamper forward in search of new sights, and children will relish finding the whimsical rodents on the bottom of each page. Flowers, berries, leaves and grasses fill his pages, providing a decorative frame for animals including a frog, a weasel, a squirrel and a fox. Baker's unusual ``mouse's eye view'' of nature provides an extraordinary wealth of detail. When two field mice take a peek at the vast world around them, they discover a whole host of interesting creatures.
