Principal Fred Won't Go to Bed

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Donald Wu. At bedtime Principal Fred discovers his teddy bear missing, so he and his family begin a frantic search. Most young readers never tire of seeing the home life of principals and teachers, and here they can both laugh at and identify with the authority figure's plight. Mixed-media acrylic and colored-pencil caricatures nail this supportive family's comical histrionics.
