(3) K-3 Illustrated by Scott Nash. "She takes us out for recess time / to jump and play in piles of slime." With snappy rhymes, our fur-faced narrator matter-of-factly describes his green reptilian teacher. My Beastly Brother's creators get it right again: Leuck limits the fear factor to a "blood-filled pen," and Nash's characters (one has a giant-eyeball head with ponytails) are as funny as they are creepy.
