(3) K-3 Superman in coonskin, the Davy Crockett presented in this whopper of a tall tale wrestles and defeats an evil-looking cartoon Halley's Comet (with jagged teeth and lightning shooting from its menacing red eyes) before it smashes into the United States. The folksy tone and plentiful, humorous exaggeration in both the illustrations and text make this a good choice for reading aloud.
