(3) K-3 When "school is over," three kids and their parents leave the city and spend the summer at their lakeside cabin. Important elements are listed: "outhouse / cork boats / scratches, blisters, sunburns, bruises / tent nights." Then the leaves start turning and it's time to go back to the city...and school. The clean mixed-media collages and simple text evoke the rituals of family vacations.
