(3) K-3 In the seventh tale about opossum Gilbert, he's selected to be George Washington in a classroom play and fears that he will forget his lines. So that he can practice at home, he borrows a tricornered hat without asking, then accuses "know-it-all" Philip of taking it when the hat is missing the next day. Gilbert's anxiety will resonate with young readers, and the watercolors flesh out his animal classmates' characters.
Reviewer: Jeannine M. Chapman
