(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sam Zuppardi. A young boy reflects on his sister, best friend, mom, and even himself, listing their shortcomings: loud, show-offy, stubborn, and messy, respectively. But then he thinks of the times when he appreciates those very same attributes. Colorful, loose acrylic and pencil illustrations, somewhat reminiscent of Shannon's David books, show both the motion and emotion of young children.
