All are beautifully readable. With the added attraction of 40 wonderfully expressive paintings by the Dillons, this collection should be snapped up."--(starred) "School Library Journal." This book has been selected as a Common Core State Standards text Exemplar (Grade 6-8, Stories) in Appendix B. "From the Trade Paperback edition.""
