(2) K-3 Retold by Barbara Rogasky. Illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman. Hyman's iconic art, full of decoration and embellishment, has been "lovingly restored" (through digital means) in this welcome reissue. The hues are crisp and bright, with everything from the emotive facial expressions to the filigreed borders looking rich and vibrant. Some may prefer their careworn editions (and the "dark, brooding romanticism" of the art, as characterized by the original Horn Book review, is now somewhat less so). But this volume should be embraced, especially by those new to this retelling.
