If You Ever Get Lost: The Adventures of Julia and Evan

80 pp. | Greenwillow | May, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-688-16947-3 $$15.95
(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Nancy Carpenter. Porte's present-tense narrative lends an immediacy to the everyday capers of two young suburban children. Julia and her younger brother, Evan, get lost at a marathon, watch a spider spin its web, play with their umbrellas indoors, and practice their Spanish. Each of the nine chapters, illustrated with jaunty pen and wash drawings, can be read aloud as a satisfying short story.
