(3) K-3 Illustrated by Christopher Corr. Accompanying their father, a minibus driver, young Fatima and Galo look after passengers' luggage on the roof: two mopeds, three bicycles, four cans of cooking oil, five sacks of rice, etc. The exuberant adventure through Burkina Faso passes waterfalls, hippos, 1.8-billion-year-old rock domes, and the Grand Mosque in Bobo Dioulasso, all vividly depicted in Corr's colorful, naively styled illustrations.
