(2) K-3 Illustrated by Doug Cushman. In Prelutsky's usual light, breezy style, he declaims the woes of the overloaded backpack and of doing fractions, and the enjoyable parts of school (author visits, field trips). Cushman's paintings show a multi-species cast of animals; their faces convey and amplify the emotions in the seventeen poems. The book looks like it's for preschoolers--which may turn-off the heavy-backpack-toting crowd that struggles with fractions.
