Quentin Fenton Herter III

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Giselle Potter. Nerdy Quentin the Third is all good manners, which pleases his family, his aunts, and his teacher. Not so Quentin Fenton Herter Three, who acts out all the time. The rollicking verses capture both boys' temperaments: the angelic boy and his devilish double. Potter's signature figures bring the doppelgänger duo to life. The story comes to rousing life when we learn that each boy longs for just a bit of the other's defining quality.
