It’s probably not a coincidence that I lived in Maine from birth to age 10. We had raspberries, though. I never heard any kuplinking or kuplanking. Even if I used a metal pail instead of a plastic tumbler, I think raspberries would just sound like a thud, which is onomatopoetically lame...but they were all routed directly to my mouth. My dad would return to the house with a full cup, and mine would be empty. I have an annotated list of my other (nine) favorite picture books <a href="http://ayuddha.net/2009/03/31/top10/" rel="nofollow">on my personal blog</a>. Find <i>Blueberries for Sal</i> in the <a href="http://tinyurl.com/pab5gd" rel="nofollow">library catalog</a>.
