Lawn to Lawn

Narrated by Kirby Heyborne, this iconographic-animated adaptation of author and illustrator Dan Yaccarino's 2010 picture book sports bright colors as it depicts the incredible journey of several lawn ornaments who try to follow their human pal Pearl after her family forgets to bring them along on their move to “Ritzy Estates.” Left behind because “only Pearl knew they were real,” the gang—including a requisite tacky pink flamingo, red-hatted gnome, deer, and jockey—make their hazardous way towards the new digs, getting lost at times on a trek that takes them through swamps, past city buildings, and across mountains…all while keeping clear of constant menace in the form of the trash truck. Featuring a read-along option, this sweet and imaginative tale is highly recommended. Aud: K, P. (J. Williams-Wood)
