(2) 4-6 Illustrated by John Rocco. At the core of Eden Phillpotts's 1910 original fairy tale The Flint Heart lies a marvelous modern fantasy; the Patersons' abridgment allows that tale to emerge. They've eliminated much unnecessary detail and playfully incorporated direct address and lighthearted asides. The book is illustrated with full-color pictures and silhouette spot art, and the page design is generous; best of all, the story delivers.
