Violet Mackerel's Natural Habitat

(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Elanna Allen. In this third series entry Violet dreams up the Theory of Helping Small Things: "If you do something to help a small thing, that small thing might find a way to help you." Thoughtful, caring Violet has the right amount of seven-year-old self-absorption. This is an excellent example of a chapter book that takes new readers seriously. Expressive black-and-white halftone illustrations accompany the text.
