The Littlest Viking

(2) PS Illustrated by Isabel Roxas. Sven is happy being the littlest Viking; then a (loud) baby sister arrives. Sven's parents' attempts to mollify their screeching newborn are futile. Fortunately, Sven's storytelling--about "a small, brave Viking and a mighty warrior princess"--calms his sister and saves the day. Roxas's winsome gouache and colored-pencil art follows Sven as he matures out of his "littlest" title and accepts the mantle of big-brotherhood.
