Illustrated by
Joseph Kelly.
Martin Bridge is growing up. In the first story, he feels like everyone is making fun of his little-boy interests. In the second story, Martin and his friend get locked inside a toy store. Martin continues to be such a believable character, it's like Kerrin is channeling a real boy. The charcoal and graphite illustrations are perfectly suited to the writing.
