(4) K-3 Adventures of Max and Pinky series. Max and Pinky the pig work hard painting a barn red. When they wake up the next day, they find the barn has turned pink overnight. The two set up an elaborate trap to solve the mystery, only to discover that Pinky is a sleep-painter. Bold-hued illustrations and silly asides add to the appeal of this slight but funny tale.
