A Carousel Tale

40 pp. | Tricycle | March, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58246-239-4 $16.99
(3) K-3 Ernst the crocodile (Ernst, The Puddle Pail) loves the carousel's wooden animals, especially "the honey-colored dog." When the dog's tail falls off, the carousel keeper asks Ernst to care for it over the winter. Ernst does that and more, infusing the tail with a life of its own. Kleven's finely detailed, vibrant mixed-media collages are a good fit for this imagination celebration.
