(4) K-3 Illustrated by Vladimir Radunsky. Using a mock professorial tone, Twain offers advice about how little girls should behave (e.g., "If at any time you find it necessary to correct your brother, do not correct him with mud"). The text is amusing, but the format is slightly off-putting: big blocks of text are paired with sketch-like illustrations of people who often look unhappy and angry.
