(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Monica Vachula. What looks like homespun beige cloth is the background for historically accurate paintings illustrating Longfellow's famous narrative poem. Each boxed image faces a page of verse featuring a smaller visual vignette. Despite the pressing matter at hand, the somber tones and the quiet, almost still-life depiction of the scenes leave the reader as observer, not participant, in this handsome new version of a classic.
