(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jose Aruego & Ariane Dewey. When pushy Snake tries to take over the rock that everybody knows is Lizard's home, Lizard soon realizes that wishing songs and pleading aren't going to get his place back. Once Snake agrees to a simple game of chance to decide, Lizard proves that even a little guy can outsmart a sneaky snake. Aruego and Dewey's trademark clarity and humor enhance their illustrations for this clever tale of comeuppance.
