"Kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk" as I was working on a unit study for Blueberries for Sal it stuck me that the words "kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk" all began with the letter K.

The illustrations in this book, from the detailed kitchen scene to the wide open hillside scenes, are beautiful. The author points out similarities between humans and animals when it comes to the behavior of mothers and children.

Anyone who has ever picked berries in the wild will relate to this little larger-than-life adventure. I treasure all those drives up into the hills of the Targhee National Forest with my mom, aunts, sisters, and cousins where we hiked into the huckleberry patches and heard the ping-ping-ping of berries hitting the
The reason I picked this one? Partly for my niece and partly because of: Our neighbors Helen and Mike (second grandparents really) had five blueberry bushes while we were growing up. Sometimes we would pick blueberries with them and sometimes we get a bowlful after Helen had given her family their share. To this day, they are still my favorite fruit :)Story: four starsNarrator: 5 starsActual rating 4.5 stars all around <3A short book but a wonderful and cute story. The narrator does a great
