22 Orphans

26 pp. | Kane/Miller | October, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-916291-81-2 $$13.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Philip Hopman. Twenty-two orphans happily clamber all over their stone manor orphanage playing with nothing but their imaginations. When a stern headmistress forbids them to do anything even slightly dangerous, they outwit her, spreading their joie de vivre her way. Watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations capitalize on the text in comic detail.
