How to Walk an Ant

40 pp. | Roaring Brook | March, 2019 | Trade ISBN 978-1-250-16262-5 $17.99
(4) K-3 A girl named Amariyah offers a tutorial in ant-walking: "STEP ONE / Find Ant"; "STEP TWO / Politely Introduce Yourself"; etc. The steps contain tips, rules, and other hand-lettered-looking text elements, some hard to read. This visual confusion undermines the book's abundant humor, exemplified by Amariyah, who has the pluck of Beverly Cleary's Ramona and the hairstyle of Alice Cooper. Glos.
