Petunia Goes Wild

32 pp. | HarperCollins/Harper | February, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-06-196334-6 $12.99
(4) K-3 Petunia (a human) eats off the floor and roars at passersby. When her parents decide that she needs to act human, animalistic Petunia plots an escape--then she realizes humanity has its perks. The humorous build-up is weakened by an abrupt, trite ending, but the bold line drawings with touches of purple and orange stand out for their adept simplicity.
