(3) K-3 Illustrated by Woody Miller. An appealing text describes the life of "Zishe of Lodz." Born a poor Polish Jew, Zishe's prodigious strength resulted in his being featured at circuses throughout the world. Textured, gold-hued illustrations have an organic feel that reflects the uplifting experiences of a kind-hearted man with extraordinary capabilities. An author's note provides further information.
