Under a Prairie Sky

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Alan Daniel & Lea Daniel. "When I grow up, I'm going to be a Mountie," the narrator states at the beginning of this story, set in the Canadian past. When the boy is charged with finding his younger brother before a storm breaks, he rides off, red-jacketed and Stetson-hatted, across the prairie on his trusty horse. Watercolor illustrations reflect the prairie's golden light and the dark of the storm as they give life to the imaginative adventures of a Mountie-to-be.
