Hardcover. Boston , Houghton Mifflin , 1st, 2002, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Non-paginated. Hardcover with dust jacket. In this, the second of D.B. Johnson's picture books about a bear modeled after Henry David Thoreau, the author takes another short piece from Walden to riff on, this one about how Thoreau built his cabin. In the picture book, the bear named Henry builds a small cabin in the wilderness, using borrowed or inexpensively purchased materials. One by one, his neighbors stop by to tell him that his cabin doesn't have enough room, doesn't have enough light, doesn't have the space for dancing. Henry assures each of them that his cabin is "bigger than it looks," and he shows each of the questioning neighbors and friends where he will eat (outdoors), where he will read (outdoors) and where he will dance (outdoors). Clean, tight copy.

If you had to name a statue, any statue, odds are good you'd mention the Statue of Liberty. Have you seen her? She's in New York. She's holding a torch. And she's in mid-stride, moving forward. But why? In this fascinating and fun take on nonfiction for kids, Dave Eggers and Shawn Harris investigate a seemingly small trait of America's most emblematic statue. What they find is about more than history, more than art. What they find in the Statue of Liberty's right foot is the powerful message of acceptance that is essential of an entire country's creation.

And Lulu is the best storyteller. She knows about the three cross-eyed dogs at a fancy restaurant, about blue and green mountains where fish fly, about the family party where Maishel Shmelkin forgot to wear his pants, and of course about the noodle woman the pointy red nose. The stories, told by a sister to her little brother, are short and sweet and make you remember things and forget things. Maira Kalman paints a wondrous and humor-filled world in a child's-eye view. It is full of wild invention, people familiar and outlandish, bittersweet moments and flights of fancy. Clean copy.
