(3) K-3 Illustrated by Julie Fortenberry. A boy who imagines himself sailing on a pirate ship wants to make sure Mom is standing by in case of trouble. The two have an amusing (and reassuring) discussion; for every problem the boy invents, the resourceful mom comes up with a solution, including a magic spray to shrink sea monsters. Childlike digital paintings echo the playful tone of the conversation.
