The Mosquito Brothers

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Erica Salcedo. In this charming fantasy about a city mosquito who's afraid of flying, the hero is named Dinnn--with three ns, which ensures appropriate humming sounds whenever his name is spoken. His adventurous journey to visit relatives in the Wild is related with tongue-in-cheek humor. Readers willing to root for a typically annoying creature will find plenty to enjoy, including spindly black-and-white illustrations.
