(4) K-3 Illustrated by Cliff Miller. This biographical fiction recounts Norman Rockwell's painting his Stockbridge neighbor, Scotty Ingram, in Rockwell's Four Seasons series. Here Scotty finds a stray beagle that Rockwell uses for the pictures, then adopts. Soft pastel illustrations, supplemented with shots of Rockwell's own covers, illustrate this sentimental story.
