(4) K-3 Translated by Marianne Martens. Illustrated by Alessandra Roberti. This story describes young Abel's budding friendship with a greedy wolf. Abel has left his parents' home to seek his future alone, and the cherished if prosaic gifts they bestow upon him allow him to eat well and befriend the angry wolf. Although the story has an abrupt ending, Roberti's illustrations are lush and moody, showing the forest as a mysterious place.

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Olga Marie Polunin. After he has seen to the needs of his kingdom, the Littlest Emperor searches for fun. Bored by displays of wealth, entertainment, and food presented in his honor, he at last finds joy with children who play in the mud, fly kites, and enjoy their childhood. The semi-formal text is paired with illustrations that strikingly populate bright art with cartoonish people.
