(3) K-3 Illustrated by John Ward & John Ward. Without losing its flavor, Medearis extends an original tale from William J. Faulkner's The Days When the Animals Talked by introducing additional characters and activities and adapting the original slave riddle. Ward's illustrations capture the fleeting moments of the slaves' Christmas holiday happiness.
