(3) K-3 Illustrated by Chuck Groenink. Luca, a newcomer to the city, is rejected by dogs for being too fox-like and by foxes for being too dog-like. Luca doesn't know where he fits until a girl befriends him, giving him license to be whoever he wants. Groenink's digital illustrations underscore the air of possibility and have a soft quality that suits this tender story about self-acceptance and identity coming into focus.
