(4) K-3 Illustrated by Valeri Gorbachev. More often than not, the silliness in these twenty stories is displayed by a gullible character who does foolish things. Although deftly drawn, the comic cartoon illustrations are somewhat monotonous, and the extensive bibliography is an inadequate substitute for proper source notes describing the origin of each piece. Nonetheless, young readers will chuckle over the ridiculous misadventures of the characters.
