(3) K-3 Illustrated by Derek Anderson. Artist Mira Bella teaches classes at Ballyhoo Beach beside Ballyhoo Bay. Just before the big art fair, real estate developers swoop in and close the beach. Initially crestfallen, Mira Bella's students--kids and grannies, seagulls, fish, and crabs--defiantly march to town hall to save the bay. The lively rhymed text, full of alliteration and wordplay, is well matched by humorous acrylic caricature illustrations.
