Albert and Little Henry

(3) K-3 Dog Albert loves to tell stories, but when baby brother Little Henry arrives, Mom and Dad don't have time to listen. Albert feels like he's shrinking--especially at a party for the baby--until Mom gives him a blank book to record his stories in. Albert's emotions are nuanced and wide-ranging. The illustrations, particularly those depicting Albert's changing size, skillfully reflect his self-image and his relationships.
