(4) K-3 Illustrated by Thor Wickstrom. In this sixth story about Mrs. Shepherd's class, Juan Dore-Nomad, true to his goofy name, wanders off at every turn during a field trip to an organic farm. But his disappearances demonstrate how curiosity can aid learning, and they also provide opportunities for his classmates to solve math word problems. Plourde's humorous but dizzying dialogue is well matched by Wickstrom's energetic, amusing illustrations.
