(3) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Wilson. If puppies are abandoned or if turtles escape from a truck, a kindly man named Sidney keeps them in his shop until they're adopted. The poems making up the text describe the animals, which include a ferret and a tarantula, and present their opinions: "Yes I'm rahther glorious / Yawn yawn rahther brilliant," muses a llama. The cheerful, textured illustrations complement the lively verses.
