Hush Little Baby: A Folk Lullaby is a children's book with the lyrics of a traditional folksong and illustrations by Aliki, published in 1968. It is available at the Internet Archive.
As you can see from the cover, the illustrations are very charming. That little kitten appears in all the illustrations even though it is not part of the song lyrics. The kitten is not sure about this dog named Rover!
This is another "problems and solutions" type of story, although it is admittedly not much of story... but it is an adorable song. You can read more about the song and its history at Wikipedia: Hush Little Baby. Aliki is also a prolific children's book author and illustrator, so I'll have more of her work to share in future posts.
