Lester Fizz, Bubble-Gum Artist

32 pp. | Dutton | August, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-47861-4 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Thor Wickstrom. Like Uncle Edgar (Degas) and Cousin Paul (Cezanne), Lester has an artistic talent: blowing bubbles. His bubble-gum renditions of The Thinker and the Mona Lisa are eye-popping. But just as he's poised to blow a bubble masterpiece, his tooth falls out. Humor, alliteration, and references (in the text and illustrations) to famous artwork and artists abound in this appealing tale.
