PS
When Horace, a young leopard, finds a toy truck on the playground, he wants to keep it so much that he lies to both his teacher and mother, even after he finds out that it belongs to a classmate. In this third Horace book, Keller raises ethical issues that will be easily grasped by young readers. But beyond that, it succeeds as a perfectly paced, dramatic story with appealing illustrations and a satisfying resolution.
