(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lynne Avril. Two fictional girls who must move west to Oregon--Jenny, from 1846, whose family faces great hardship, and Katie, from today, whose biggest challenge is an annoying brother--present their experiences side by side, in a nifty comics-style format. The initially revelatory aspect of the book fizzles out somewhere on the Oregon Trail: like Jenny's move, this book takes ages.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
