(2) 1-3 Illustrated by G. Brian Karas. Five gentle episodes about an ordinary boy show Leo suffering through his mom's vegetarian phase, creatively avoiding looking dumb on book report dress-up day, earning money for a pet, daydreaming, and returning a lost dog to its owner. The mild situations are clearly boy-oriented, and new illustrations--lighthearted pencil cartoons--accompany each episode.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam | Horn Book Magazine Issue: December, 1982
