(4) K-3 Illustrated by Guridi. "The day I started school, I fell in love." In this Spanish import, a boy describes his feelings for a bird-loving girl in his class, which culminate in his decision to wear a bird costume to school one day. It's unfortunate that in this unusually perceptive story's first few pages, it's not clear from the dark-pencil and Photoshop art who (or what) is narrating the tale.
