Edward in the Jungle

32 pp. | Little | April, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-316-56391-9 $$15.95
(3) K-3 Bookish Edward loves Tarzan stories, and one day, while absorbed in his reading, he discovers himself in the middle of a jungle adventure. After being rescued by the ape man himself, Edward emulates his hero and saves a crocodile from capture. The acrylic artwork transforms Edward's ordinary backyard into a believable jungle. The story has a comforting circular twist at the end.
