(4) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Cristina Kadmon. While visiting his aunt Molly, Luke spots a real live lion at the edge of the woods. Luke is afraid--until he discovers the powerful beast only wants to get home, and small, insignificant Luke can help. Kadmon's pastel compositions often consist of several panels used together to convey sequence of action. The "lionhearted" theme is labored, but the engaging illustrations redeem the book.
