(3) K-3 A clever dog named Tricky has been trained as an assistant for his mean-spirited owner, who plays "cruel jokes" including stealing fruit, tripping pedestrians, and toppling cakes onto the baker. But the baker has been nice to Tricky, and Tricky has a change of heart. The mixed-media illustrations enhance the well-paced tale, featuring both comic and heartfelt moments that convey the notion that kindness begets kindness.
