(2) 4-6 In every episode of this tale of Alix and her family's beach vacation, Perkins zooms in. Not only do we taste the salty crunch of deep-fried periwinkles and hear the specific sound of a flat tire but we get to know the characters in an intimate way. Perkins's black-and-white illustrations--beautifully composed, slightly mysterious, gently funny--add to the intensity and authenticity.
