(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Michael McCurdy. Adapted from Edgar Rice Burroughs's 1914 novel Tarzan of the Apes, this picture book faithfully re-creates the original book's thrilling, albeit unrealistic, jungle environment, in which a boy raised by apes gradually discovers his humanity. Scratchboard illustrations lend dignity to Tarzan's often violent adventures, while an author's note gives a thoroughly and engagingly personal account of Tarzan lore.
