pica, no pica (ooh! ouch!)

by Jill Hartley

Description

The charm of the image and the everyday surprise of a world to discover, with contrasts and similarities. This book reveals the primary impressions about things that burn, sting, irritate, or scratch, and its approximation to that which cuddles, tingles, pampers, sweetens, softens, or, like children would say, ooh, ouch!
