Toddler-PreS—Scenes of aquatic life are paired with a lesson on simple prepositions. "Clownfish wiggles out of an anemone" is followed by "Octopus waits in a dark den." (The words out and in are capitalized and in a bolder font than the rest of the text.) Leonard's full-spread illustrations, done in acrylic, are detailed and realistically capture each creature performing the act stated in the text.
