(4) K-3 The fourteen tales in this book have been adapted from versions published in the early part of the twentieth century. Subjects include Johnny Appleseed, Davy Crockett, the Tar Man, and Sweet Betsy from Pike. The retellings are cursory, with the results being a little flat. Palazzo's pastoral sketchlike illustrations recommend the volume.
