Neville

(2) K-3 Illustrated by G. Brian Karas. A lonely boy stands at the end of his street and yells, "Neville!" Soon every kid in the neighborhood is adding his or her voice to the cry, even though no one knows who Neville is. Juster's clean narrative gives enough backstory to feel the protagonist's isolation, while Karas's art perfectly re-creates the sense of life on a suburban block.
