The Village of Basketeers

40 pp. | Houghton | May, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-618-39671-3 $16.00
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicoletta Ceccoli. When a wild wind wreaks havoc in a village of basket weavers, they try unsuccessfully to capture it with their biggest and strongest baskets. Then two children make a basket small and soft enough to lure the wind to sleep inside, and all is well. The ending is a bit long, but the vibrant illustrations create an eye-catching, quirky world.
