(1) K-3 The title's handsome, square-jawed action figure, uniformed in "dazzle-painted battle pants," takes on many risky assignments. With sly good humor, British author-illustrator Grey gives life both to Traction Man and the young boy orchestrating his adventures. Her illustrations show a cheerfully disheveled home, teeming with raw material for imaginative play.
