Pierre in Love

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Petra Mathers. Pierre is a humble fisherman in love with ballet instructor and painter Catherine. He dresses up and admits his love, but she has already given her heart to a rugged fisherman, who, in the end, turns out to be Pierre. The story's romantic theme may not appeal to its picture-book audience, but the dreamy watercolor illustrations add a dose of humor.
