Tire Mountain

32 pp. | Boyds | August, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-932425-60-4 $15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ken Condon. Aaron's mother wants to move to the country, away from the mountain of tires outside their apartment and shop. Aaron doesn't want to leave but eventually figures out how to bring a bit of home with him. The telling is choppy, but this view of city life is unique. Soft realistic drawings highlight the mountain's transformation from trash to treasure.
