PICTURE BOOKS
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Andrew Glass. Complemented by Glass's offbeat, textured illustrations, this tall tale about Lucky Doolin, a lovelorn cowboy who makes a deal with the devil, hinges on the difference between time zones. For a lifetime of good fortune, Lucky can't wash or shave for exactly seven years, or he'll lose his soul, but the devil forgets the hour's difference. This cumbersome time-zone twist doesn't provide the clever payoff you'd expect.
