Stuart's Cape

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Martin Matje. New to town, Stuart is worried he won't make any friends. To make the most of the days before school starts, he decides to have adventures. After he staples some ties together to make a cape ("adventures only happen to people with capes"), Stuart's imagination takes over. His toys become real, he can fly--anything is possible. The zany humor seems forced, but Stuart is an endearing character and the illustrations are engaging.
