(4) K-3 Illustrated by Mike Benny. In a series of short rhyming poems, Xavier expresses concerns about his new stepbrother. Moving from resentment to hostility to acceptance and love, Xavier's feelings will resonate with many readers. The gouache paintings convey the range of the singsong verses' moods.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
