(3) K-3 Illustrated by Melanie Hope Greenberg. On a hot subway ride, Oscar watches as the Island Lady pulls from her bag a cool breeze, the Caribbean sea, a picnic lunch, even a steel drum band. The multicultural crowd joins in the festivities. Lively paintings in Caribbean pastel hues joyfully fill in the details as the rhythmical text celebrates the unexpected magic of a routine trip.
