(2) K-3 Miniatures by Hannah E. Harrison. Lulu is a clever little Parisian dog. Remy is an itinerant painter. Once the two join forces, Lulu's meticulous vignettes of Remy's sitters' pets, which she surreptitiously adds to Remy's paintings, delight his subjects--though not Remy. Lulu's canny taking-charge is amusing. Meanwhile, the three contrasting painting styles--Lulu's classic elegance (thanks to Harrison), Remy's turn-of-the-twentieth-century modernism, and Hawkes's own lively and painterly milieu--are inviting.
