The Coat of Many Colors

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pauline Baynes. This bland retelling of the Hebrew Bible story of Joseph emphasizes the brothers and the lessons they all learn about the price of jealousy and boasting. Pharaoh is only a bit player, and his wife does not appear at all. Baynes's illustrations have borders, patterns, and shapes that recall ancient Egyptian art.
