A familiar song repackaged as a board book doubles as a finger puppet. Many a caregiver has sung this refrain to a newborn or toddler, ignoring the decidedly sad lyrics of the original. Magsamen lays claim and sweetens it up. She uses only the chorus and changes the last line to "I'll give you lots of hugs… / and kisses every day" instead of the expected "Please don't take my sunshine away." Her cheery artwork, reminiscent of applique, recalls the song's country-music roots and is anything but sad. The pages are decorated with hearts and cuddly-looking caregiver-child animal pairs—foxes, skunks with sunny yellow umbrellas, bunnies, raccoons, and squirrels. The thick, heart-shaped pages include a circular die-cut hole through which readers might poke the smiling felt sun puppet attached to the back cover. A finger inserted from the back makes the sun wiggle and will capture even the youngest baby's attention. The puppet feature does not obstruct the initial page turns, but when a toddler says, "Do it again" (as they doubtless will), quickly re-positioning the finger puppet is somewhat challenging.A fun but inessential novelty, as much toy as book.
