The repetitive text here - in which a little, little old woman milks her cow, sets out the milk, and steps away, only to find it lapped up by her naughty kitten when she returns - reminded me a bit of the traditional English ghost story of The Teeny-Tiny Woman, with everything being "little, little," rather than "teeny-tiny." The artwork had a wonderful old-fashioned style, with a distinctive folk sensibility. I particularly liked that each page's illustration was contained inside a large circle, with plenty of white space (an unusual page layout in this day and age, when picture-book visuals are usually far more "busy") around.
I did worry, as a cat-lover, at what I thought was a rather harsh conclusion to the story, until I saw the "little, little" final line, and then I chuckled! Overall, this is a delightful little book, well-suited to younger picture-book audiences (pre-school, I would think). As for me, I can't wait to try some more Beskow! ( )
