(4) K-3 Illustrated by Vincent Bergier. Sandy, a blue cat, leads readers through nocturnal adventures in NYC on dark-blue acetate overlays imprinted with clear windows allowing shapes from the digital pictures below to create strange nighttime images. Flip the acetate page to see a different, day-lit view of the city, guided by red squirrel Frankie, including Central Park, urban traffic scenes, and other sights. This French import's interesting concept isn't always successfully executed.
