(4) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Maja Dusi­kova. Despite tales of dangerous creatures on the other side of the river, Raccoon and Little Fox cross over into each other's territories unharmed. While visiting, they discover the history behind the scary tales. The history seems contrived, but the fablelike book, with its cast of friendly looking animals, makes an effective point about fear of the unknown.
