(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tim Bowers. Here's an original dog tale: the story of Mooch, a stray who finds a new home then nearly loses it, is told exclusively in haiku. ("Chew on dirty socks. / Roll around in week-old trash. / Ahhh...that's much better.") The haiku are funny, pensive, and affecting--sometimes all at once--and the oil paintings are just as thoughtfully executed.
