(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sue Truesdell. When Red the Clown gets a new dog, Grumps the old circus family dog worries that he isn't appreciated. He works and works to improve his one and only trick. In the end, Red the Clown makes sure he gets his share of cheers, because he's family, after all. The playful, energetic watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations successfully characterize this tale of loyalty and determination.
