The Pot That Juan Built

32 pp. | Lee | September, 2002 | Trade ISBN 1-58430-038-8 $$16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by David Diaz. A cumulative rhyme deftly reveals the technique of master Mexican potter Juan Quezada, who revived traditional methods to create "beautiful pot[s]." The rhyme on the left page of each spread is supplemented by a short prose explanation on the right page, and an afterword offers more information. Bright reds and oranges in the stylized, digitally generated illustrations-some perhaps a bit overdone-augment the text appropriately.
