The Lizard Man of Crabtree County

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jill Kastner. When a strange Lizard Man reportedly appears in Crabtree County, James Arthur tries to track him down. In the oil illustrations, readers glimpse the Lizard Man, but they also discover what remains unsaid in the text: James Arthur's efforts are adding fuel to the rumors. Though it takes a savvy reader to get the final joke, this author-illustrator collaboration makes for an amusing book.
