Making Plum Jam

32 pp. | Hyperion | June, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-7868-0460-2 $$15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Kevin O'Malley. While visiting his unconventional aunts in the country, Jackie participates in a raid on the neighbor's plum tree to make jam. After Jackie drops off a few jars of jam in a nighttime restitution visit, the angry farmer becomes a lot more neighborly. Although long, the story is amiably paced and filled with farm details and the aunts' idiosyncrasies; the illustrations are O'Malley's humorous, individuated cartoons.
