(2) K-3 Illustrated by François Roca. Winter borrows from Genesis to bring to life this picture book account of Muhammad Ali's boxing career: "IN THE BEGINNING was Jack Johnson..." Packed with all-capitalized, oversized words, the nimble text is visually powerful. In perfect counterpoint are Roca's realistic full-page oil paintings rendered in muted tones with an occasional punch of red.
