(2) K-3 When Esme's pet goat Trudy fails to emerge from the barn--and it snows soon thereafter--she becomes famous as a weathercaster. This finding-the-right-pet story merges into an animal-child friendship story and then an animal-with-seemingly-miraculous-powers story--with a "kid"-pleasing twist. Double-page spreads of acrylic paintings set scene and mood, while spot art progresses the action.
