(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jane Wooster Scott. Fifteen original oil-paint illustrations in the folk-art style depict nostalgic American landscapes through the seasons. Busy, old-fashioned scenes are full of tiny people bustling around, engaged in various activities. Readers are invited to look for miniature items in each colorful painting, including "teeny-weeny, itsy-bitsy, ditzy Mitzi," a small black-and-white dog that appears in each picture.
