(2) K-3 Illustrated by Anita Lobel. Huck's talents are impressively demonstrated in a blithesome retelling of a tale reminiscent of "East of the Sun and West of the Moon." The similarity to this and other tales is cogently explained in an appended author's note. The text, fluid and precise, has just enough repetition to suggest the authentic voice of a storyteller; with an emphasis on movement and texture, the full-color illustrations match its style.
