(4) K-3 Illustrated by Milan Pavlović. To reach up-high things, short kid Seamus wears his mother's high-heeled shoes, although now he can't reach down-low things. The notion that Seamus would believe that his problem requires an either/or solution--"Now he must decide. Up or down? High or low?"--is improbable. Still, Hartt-Sussman offers a fresh approach to size insecurity, while Pavlović's idiosyncratic illustrations feature lively color combinations.
