(4) K-3 Illustrated by Kestutis Kasparavicius. San José's retelling of Andersen's tale of a girl lighting her unsold matches to stay warm retains the flavor of the original but is greatly condensed. While detailed, Kasparavicius's illustrations are as stiff as the cold little girl huddled between houses.
