We all know that Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to fetch her poor dog a bone, but that was just the beginning of their story. Staged like a dramatic Victorian play, the lady's quest to feed her dog plays out in beautiful vignettes while other dramas are cleverly hidden in the borders of the page. For readers 4 to 7, Tomie dePaola's classic 1981 picture book features his instantly recognizable acrylic paintings.
