Alligators All Around by Maurice Sendak

An ABC of Things to Do

A playful, rhythmic picture book that follows a child’s counting song as one by one alligators appear in unexpected places around the house and neighborhood; the cumulative, repetitive text and whimsical, slightly surreal illustrations build humor and momentum, inviting children to join in the counting while blending everyday domestic details with fantastical intrusions until the growing parade fills the pages.
