(4) YA Stephen (I Is Someone Else) is back from India in time to witness the last gasp of the sixties. He smokes too much pot, goes to the Isle of Wight festival, and reconnects with beautiful Astrid, who draws him into communal living and, eventually, disillusionment. This sequel is talky and static, but Cooper's take on the sixties dream is respectfully nuanced.

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Catherine Walters. Although William, a young guinea pig, eagerly follows a squirrel out of the hutch and into the woods to play, the self-serving squirrel abandons him when a fox appears. William hides under the leaves, but fortunately his mother has followed him and finds a safer hiding place. Rich woodland details fill the illustrations that accompany this story of learning whom to trust.
