Two Little Boys from Toolittle Toys

(3) K-3 Rudy Toolittle abandons frivolous toy-testing to become more serious about the family business, choosing instead to catalog, inventory, and disassemble the playthings. When re-assembly proves tricky, younger brother Ridley comes to Rudy's rescue. Engrossing watercolor wash, graphite, and colored-pencil illustrations (rounded out with a search-and-find catalog of toys) provide a fanciful backdrop to a story about valuing playtime.
