(2) K-3 Illustrated by Manon Gauthier. Spielman's understated picture book biography covers fascinating events of Marceau's early life. At sixteen, he and his brother fled the Nazis and became active in the French Resistance. Because of his ability to entertain, Marcel was tapped to smuggle Jewish children out of France. Gauthier's softly colored line drawings perfectly capture the gentle spirit of the performer, both off and on stage.
