The Lonely Typewriter

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Max Dalton. Not just for Luddites. A much-handed-down typewriter--formerly used to type pamphlets for MLK, a prize-winning poetry manuscript, etc.--is unearthed when young Pablo has to write a report and the family computer freezes. There's much humor and gentle fun-poking at today's techno-savvy kids ("A what-writer?"). Even skywriting pitches in to help tell the story in the inventive, retro-style art.
