Lucky Lazlo

(3) K-3 A cat steals the red rose Lazlo bought for his love, the star in a theater production of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. A merry backstage chase ensues. Short declarative sentences complement the pen-and-ink illustrations, full of Alice references. Minimal color is used to great effect against intricate black-and-white surroundings. An author's note includes information about theatrical superstitions, many of which these characters humorously break.
