Reissue (1982, Bradbury)
(3) K-3 This slyly humorous story features Bea, a kindergartner, and her father, Mr. Jones, an advertising executive, who trade places. Schwartz's black-and-white pencil drawings are full of wonderful images: Bea in her oversized suit jacket; Mr. Jones lying on the kindergarten floor. If only we could all find such an ingenious way to escape the daily grind.
