These crisply reproduced volumes present four of Politi's beloved stories set in California. Emmet tells of a mischievous stray dog. The other three books are Caldecott honorees, with Pedro and Juanita (both set on Los Angeles's Olvera Street) receiving honor awards and Swallows (about a boy at the San Juan Capistrano Mission) the Caldecott Medal. Review covers these titles: Emmet, Juanita, Pedro, and Song of the Swallows.
