INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(2) 4-6 Far-Flung Adventures series. The story begins in folktale fashion, with a childless couple finding Hugo as a swaddled infant. Hugo's trip back to the land of his birth involves a mean-spirited editor and a story collector, who, like Stewart and Riddell, knows the true value of "once upon a time..." Riddell's playful, old-fashioned-looking line drawings and silhouettes add to the text's amiable feel.
