(3) K-3 Translated by Kjersti Board. Finding it too quiet in her house without any siblings, Bridget invites three moose inside to play. Unfortunately, the moose begin to act like obnoxious...well, brothers. Bridget, who is here a bit less in control than in her previous books, is as endearing as ever, and Lindenbaum's art humorously records the mess, from scattered Legos to the slowly accumulating small brown poop.

(2) K-3 Translated by Kjersti Board. While on vacation, Bridget notices a small island with fluffy clouds lying on it. Wading over, she discovers that the clouds are five tiny sheep. As in Bridget and the Gray Wolves, she takes on a teacherly role, giving the "silly muttonheads" swimming lessons so they can leave the island. The text effectively captures the spontaneity and language of imaginative play, and the art extends the oddball humor of the text.

(4) K-3 Translated by Kjersti Board. One cold, rainy night, a jester boy begs for food at a French monastery with a painting of the Weeping Madonna. Over the abbot's misgivings, the monks feed the jester, whose grateful performance on the high altar of the church causes the Madonna to smile. Although the plot is predictable, the story is elegantly told, and the bright illustrations interestingly blend the style of manuscript illumination with cartoons.

(3) K-3 Translated by Kjersti Board. While on a field trip with her daycare center, precocious but high-strung Bridget gets left behind. She stops in a forest to ask directions from some wolves, they get to gabbing, and Bridget ultimately assumes a teacherly role with the wolves, gaining much-needed confidence in the process. Like the narrative in this absurd, affecting yarn from Sweden, the illustrations feature much humor.
