Mary Wore Her Red Dress and Henry Wore His Green Sneakers

Merle Peek's Texas folk song "Mary Wore Her Red Dress and Henry Wore His Green Sneakers" has been reworked into this sweet song story for early readers and young listeners/singers! The enticing black and white illustrations with splotches of vibrant colors highlight the story of Katy Bear's birthday party and her forest friends who attend the party. Each animal wears a different color, such as Mary Squirrel wears her red dress and Henry Raccoon wears his green sneakers. These swatches of color make each animal recognizable and will help the story be remembered by readers!
