Jungle Bullies

32 pp. | Cavendish | September, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-7614-5297-4 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Vincent Nguyen. Larger and fiercer jungle animals displace smaller ones ("Elephant was bigger than Hippo, so Hippo splashed out of the pond") until baby Monkey stands up to Leopard, which triggers a ripple effect for sharing and friendship. Textured, expressive pencil and watercolor illustrations aptly depict the jungle hierarchy. The unabashedly didactic text presents a message of empowerment.
