(2) K-3 Illustrated by Chuck Groenink. Readers shadow Hank the pill bug for a day as he journeys past other small ground-dwellers, up his "exercise stick," and across a big sidewalk to meet his best friend (a human child). Cleverly designed, the book tells the story through droll narration paired with editorializing picture labels. Digital illustrations capture Hank's personality and charmingly convey his bug's-eye vantage point through details, size, and changes in perspective.
