The Impudent Rooster

32 pp. | Dutton | April, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-525-47179-0 $$16.99
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Holly Berry. Two villains spark the plot: a selfish old woman who advises a poor old man to be mean to his rooster, and a greedy nobleman who steals a small purse found by the rooster. Oversize, comic pictures expertly convey the action and the predictable reversal of fortunes in this robust battle of wits--a story based on a folktale told by nineteenth-century Romanian storyteller Ion Creanga.
