Hippety Hop Around the Block
One of the cutest small hardcover children's books i came across in a while.
Hippety Hop Around the Block. A Tell a Tale Whitman book from 1953.
(More recent printings were published under the name Baby goes around the Block)
The sweet story is written by Gladys M. Horn and all adorable illustrations are by Dorcas.
I love that the story begins with the little boy telling that he took Mommy walking, then the story continues by him telling about all the things they saw.
If you're hoping to find this book in my shop, got to disappoint you. Not planning to sell it any time soon, sorry, i love it too much!
