Clever Crow

32 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-689-80671-X
(3) K-3 A crafty crow snitches Mama's shiny key ring, but daughter Emma outsmarts the big bird and retrieves the keys. Schindler's fetching colored-pencil illustrations on parchment paper achieve a subtle texture. A lively read-aloud, the rhymed story with its simple refrain holds a witty element of surprise at story's end.
