(4) K-3 Henry, the incredible book eating boy, learns a lesson in moderation. Jeffers expands on the age-old axiom--too much of a good thing is never a good thing--with a cheeky sense of humor. At times the text is overshadowed by the rich color palette, but the illustrations, constructed from the pages of old discarded books, are eye-catching.
