Hazel Nutt: Mad Scientist

(4) K-3 Illustrated by True Kelley. Replete with visual and verbal puns, this slim story tells how Dr. Hazel Nutt deflates the suspicions of her whole village about her monster-making by entertaining them with a concert given by her creations, opera singer Dracula-la-la and accompanist Frankensteinway. Energetic cartoons appropriately illustrate Dr. Nutt's high jinks, and the humor, though occasionally forced, is accessible to most children.
