Volume 21 July-August, 1968 Number 11 New Titles for Children and Young People

Bishop, Curtis Kent. Little League Little Brother. Lippincott, 1968. 185p. Trade ed. $3.75; Library ed. $3.59 net. The rule was that brothers must be taken as a pair-if they tried out Ad for Little League ball-or not at all; Jesse had not been good enough, and 5-6 his brother Duane had been ineligible, therefore. Now Duane was pitching for the Atlas Giants, but Jesse (who had become a good football player) decided to try again to join his older brother's team. It took a considerable amount of effort, but finally the boys made their father's dream come come true: a brother battery. The book has some good baseball sequences but it is rather heavily laden with information (via dialogue) about the way Little League rules work.

Bolliger, Max. Sandy at the Children's Zoo; tr. by Elisabeth Gemming; illus. by Klaus Brunner. T. Y. Crowell, 1967. 40p. $4.50. First published in Switzerland in 1966 under the title Knirps im Kin- M derzoo, an oversize picture book with a rambling and often awkward text. 4-6 There is no story line, only a situation: a small boy runs off as he and yrs. his mother enter the zoo; he roams about seeing animal life and playing with some children, occasionally remembering that his mother is looking for him. They meet, and mother says, "At last I've found you!" Sandy holds out a feather he has picked up. The book ends, "He takes the feather out of his pocket and holds it out to her. 'It's for you!' he says, and his eyes are shining." Some of the illustrations are vivid with movement and color, and some of the animal pictures imposing.

Bonham, Frank. The Ghost Front. Dutton, 1968. 223p. $4.50. A story of the second World War, with no glorification of war but with R a recognition of the accrual of thousands of acts of individual bravery 8- that surmount the bungling and compensate for ineptitude. Tom and Andy Croft are twins who enlist at the age of eighteen, are separated in training camp and sent, separately, to the Ardennes front. Tom had always been the leader, the strong one, but by the time Andy met him again, the first tremendous thrust of the Battle of the Bulge had toughened both of them, and Andy knew that never again would he lean on his brother. The episodes of the book are based on historical events; the writing is ma- ture, realistic, and candid, and the book filled with action.

Bramblett, Ella, comp. Shoots of Green; Poems for Young Gardeners; illus. by

[169] Ingrid Fetz. T. Y. Crowell, 1968. 117p. $3.75. A charming collection of poems about plants and gardens, the sec- R tions moving from "Spring Is Coming" to "To Pop Into The Pot," "Fires 4-8 In The Fall," and "A Song Of Seasons." The black and white illustrations are gentle and realistic, the calibre of the selections far above the usual mediocre-to-good assortment. The poetry is almost all simple, some hu- morous, much of it written by poets whose forte is writing for children, but some from poets whose work is for all ages. Some of the writers whose work is included: Frost, Dickinson, Blake, Keats, Farjeon, Shake- speare, Behn, Zolotow, Hughes, etc. First line and title indexes are appended.

Brannum, Mary. When I was 16; by Mary Brannum and the editors; photographs by Camilla Smith. Platt and Munk, 1967. 318p. $3.95. A collection of reminiscences by eighteen women who have had inter- R esting lives or careers; each describes her life and ideas at sixteen. 7-10 There is variety in style as well as in milieu or profession, and-since the selections range in time from the turn of the century to the 1960s- the book gives a broad picture of the changing role of women in Ameri- can life. Each selection is preceded by a brief biographical sketch and by two photographs-then and now.

Burton, Hester. The Flood at Reedsmere; illus. by Robin Jacques. World, 1968. 204p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.86 net. Although Mark and Mary Vaughan are the protagonists of this tense R and exciting story, it is the whole village of Reedsmere that is involved 5-7 in the great flood of 1953. The youngsters were home alone when the water began to seep in under their door, and they staunchly set out to rescue an old couple whose cottage was in a dangerous location. The events that follow bring in other villagers, one by one, as people gather in the one safe residence of Reedsmere; they show both the courage of individuals and the close-knit relationships of a small Norfolk village. The plot is tight-knit, the characterization excellent.

Chaber, M. E. The Acid Nightmare. Holt, 1967. 126p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $2.92 net. "Man, you don't know what it means to be turned on," Ray told Johnny. Ad But Johnny, who had just come to New York, soon found out; Ray got him 9-12 admitted to a party. Suspected of the murder that was committed there, Johnny told a detective about the acid party and was released from jail after it had been arranged that he would help the police try to trap the murderer. There was another party at which the man who had been sell- ing LSD to the others was found to be the criminal. The story is capably written, the plot slightly contrived; the book should be successful for its designed purpose, which is the stimulation of reading in junior and senior high school students who are reluctant readers.

Chester, Michael. Let's Go to Stop Air Pollution; illus. by Albert Micale. Putnam, 1968. 48p. Library ed. $1.97 net. M The title fails to indicate that the visit is made ("you are on your way 4-6 to...") to an air pollution control laboratory; the textual emphasis is on

[170] causes of air pollution, devices for measuring and checking, and some of the dangers or the ways of alleviating dangers. The book gives little dramatic or anecdotal material to mitigate the dull style of the continuous text, and mentions only in passing the dangerous effects on human beings. A glossary is appended.

Clithero, Sally, comp. Beginning-to-Read Poetry; selected from original sources; illus. by Erik Blegvad. Follett, 1967. 31p. (Beginning-to-read Books) Trade ed. $1; Library ed. $1.89 net. Twenty-five poems, each illustrated by a small, bright picture, are Ad included in this pleasant introduction to poetry for the beginning indepen- 2-4 dent reader. The selections are brief and simple, some on the pedestrian side but most of the poems being of excellent quality.

Cohen, Robert. The Color of Man; illus. by Ken Heyman. Random House, 1968. 114p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.99 net. The jacket adds, "What it's all about. Why we are confused and con- R cerned about it. How it will affect our future." The emphasis is on what 5-9 it's all about: what causes differences in skin color and how those differences probably came about is discussed; the process of natural selection as it affects eye and hair colors is described; the social as well as the physiological aspects are considered. The author discusses the nature of prejudice, and its dangers. A lucid book, the writing straightforward and the material rather loosely organized. The photographs are truly impressive, pictures of people from many parts of the world, pictures that am- plify the text's message of brotherhood.

Corbett, Scott. Cop's Kid; illus. by Jo Polseno. Atlantic-Little, Brown, 1968. 120p. $3.95. Chip and Benny Brady had gone on an errand for their mother when Ad they saw a man with a gun get off the bus; the driver hadn't been shot 4-6 but seemed in deep pain, and the passenger, masked, pushed his cigarette into Benny's check. Later, learning that the driver had had a heart attack and wanting revenge for the burn, Benny and his brother hunted the man, although their father, a policeman, had warned them to stay away from the tough part of town their clues indicated. The boys go to the police in the end, having done some detective work on their own, and the criminal is captured. The sleuthing is within the bounds of credibility if not parental approval; the story seems a bit contrived in spots, but it has action, suspense, and natural-sounding dialogue.

Credle, Ellis. Mexico; Land of Hidden Treasure. Nelson, 1967. 223p. illus. Trade ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.31 net. Ad A book that gives historical background and a considerable amount 6-9 of information about contemporary programs and problems in Mexico; the author, who has lived there many years, also comments perceptive- ly on the fusing of Spanish and Indian customs. The book is poorly organized but well written, save for an infrequent generalization. "They all dream of visiting or studying in the United States." The photographs are of good quality. Covering the same material, but better organized and better written is Hobart's Mexican Mural (Harcourt, 1963); this is designed for a slightly younger audience than the Hobart book. Append-

[1711 ed are a reading list, and index, a list of dates important in Mexican history, and a list that gives the pronunciation of Mexican words.

Curren, Polly. Hear Ye of Philadelphia; pictures by Kurt Werth. Lothrop, 1968. 35p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.70 net. A simplified history, with just the right amount of material and level Ad of difficulty for the younger reader; the style is bland and the author has 3-4 a tendency to use stock phrases. The text describes the founding of the city, dwells at length on the events preceding and during the Revolution, and briskly discusses the growth of the city up to the present time. The illustrations are most attractive and are filled with interesting details of architecture, costumes, and historical events.

Daudet, Alphonse. The Brave Little Goat of Monsieur Sdguin; A Picture Story from Provence; tr. and ad. from a story by Alphonse Daudet; illus. by Chiyoko Nakatani. World, 1968. 31p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.86 net. Soft, soft colors are used in verdant scenes as a background to pic- R tures of the lively white goat, Blanquette, and her arch enemy, the pred- K-2 atory wolf. Warned by Monsieur Sdguin that his other goats had been eaten by the wolf when they strayed up the mountainside, the brave (or fool- ish) goat told her owner that she was bored. She got away and had her day of fun, but at nightfall the wolf came; she fought all night and only at dawn, when the wolf heard Monsieur Sdguin's horn, was Blanquette safe. In the original, the goat is eaten by the wolf. The translation is quite faith- ful; the name of the translator-adapter is not given.

Du Bois, William PNne. Pretty Pretty Peggy Moffitt; story and pictures by William Phne Du Bois. Harper, 1968. 32p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $2.92 net. Her first present was a mirror, her first words were "pretty pretty M girl," because that was all she heard. As she grew, Peggy (always en- 4-6 chanted by her image) kept bumping into things because she was looking at her reflection. Invited to try out for a movie part, Peggy met disas- ter: she fell in a coal chute and became black and blue all over. Dis- missed by the director, Peggy staggered home unhappily but made a marvelous discovery: if she didn't look in a mirror, she didn't bump into things! The illustrations show a mod, mod child, exquisitely dressed; her cereal-bowl haircut meets her lashes (in the style of the model on whom Peggy is patterned) and her vapid expression contrasts with the wild dis- array of her sprawling, falling body. Everything about the format suggests a rather young audience, but the nuances of style, the bland inanities, or the social commentary will be lost on most of that audience.

Durrell, Gerald. Rosy Is My Relative. Viking, 1968. 239p. $4.95. A farcical novel set in England at the turn of the century. A shy bache- M lor, Adrian Rookwhistle, inherits an affectionate elephant (Rosy) with a 8- predilection for trouble. Adrian, hunting a circus where he can leave Rosy, has a series of slapstick adventures: Rosy disrupts a hunt while Adrian is having a swim au naturel; Rosy disrupts a society ball, with chandeliers crashing and ladies fainting, etc. A long courtroom scene ends with Adrian declared innocent and liable for no damages. All concerned go off to cele- brate; Adrian becomes betrothed (no surprise) and Rosy, as usual gets her

[1721 share of the beer. The characters are caricatures in Wodehouse style- including the use of such names as Ethelbert Cleep and Sir Magnus Ramp- ing Fumitory-and the book's redeeming aspect is a merry lunacy.

Farb, Peter. The Land, Wildlife, and Peoples of the Bible; illus. by Harry Mc- Naught. Harper, 1967. 171p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.79 net. Illustrated with beautifully detailed drawings of plants, animals, or R artifacts of the Holy Land, a fascinating book that describes some of the 7- events of the Old Testament and the New Testament as they can be inter- preted today by a scientist. The locust, for example, eaten by John the Baptist is now thought to be the pod of the carob (or locust tree) and the behemoth described by Job is now assumed to be a hippopotamus. The final chapter briefly discusses some of the changes of the past two thousand years. A bibliography (divided into general and advanced readings), an index of Biblical references, and a subject index are appended. The writing style is polished, the information interesting.

Feagles, Anita MacRae. Me, Cassie. Dial, 1968. 158p. $3.95. Although the action verges occasionally on slapstick, this is a merry R and sophisticated story, convincingly told by eighteen-year-old Cassie. 7-10 A suburbanite whose mother is a frustrated liberal (frustrated because there isn't enough to reform) and an indefatigable organization woman, Cassie is almost crowded out of her home by Mother's causes: two Afri- can exchange students and some orphaned cousins. She is having her own troubles with Jonah, a reluctant suitor; and the longer she waits for Jonah to commit himself, the more Cassie lets herself become involved in a mod- eling career. She doesn't really enjoy it, however, and is delighted when Jonah finally capitulates and admits he is in love. The dialogue is breezy and intelligent, and the characters piercingly real.

Fenner, Carol. Lagalg, the Wanderer; story and pictures by Carol Fenner. Har- court, 1968. 35p. Trade ed. $3.25; Library ed. $3.36 net. Only the jacket copy indicates that the setting for this rather tepid Ad story is a Filipino village, although both the text and the illustrations 3-4 give clues. The latter are awkward, the former very simple but very sedate. "He looked down the other way/ down the highway./ It was wide/ and it was long/ and/ it was full of many things,/ all moving." The traveler is a small pony who escapes his hitching post in a field, runs into the marketplace and creates havoc, and finds his way back to the home field.

Freeman, Don. Corduroy; story and pictures by Don Freeman. Viking, 1968. 32p. Trade ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.37 net. Corduroy is a toy bear who has lost a button from his overalls and R goes searching for it when the department store closes. He inadvertent- 3-5 ly steps on the escalator and is carried to a furniture section, where he yrs. seizes a mattress button. A watchman returns Corduroy to the toy section, and next morning he is bought by Lisa, who had seen him the day before. She has emptied her piggy bank and come back for him. So Corduroy finds a home. The illustrations are appealing, the story line slight; Lisa is a pretty, perky Negro child.

[173] Froman, Robert. Let's Find Out About the Clinic; illus. by Joseph Veno. Watts, 1968. 47p. $2.65. A description of a clinic visit, the strength of the book being in its M emphasis on preventive medicine and on the long view (better to have a K-2 shot in the arm than be in bed for weeks) but its weakness is the fact that the audience may be confused by the use of "clinic," since there are other kinds of clinics with other kinds of treatment, and since the procedures described are used by all doctors making a complete physical examination of patients-in clinics or out. The illustrations are rather cluttered and not very attractive.

George, Jean (Craighead). The Moon of the Fox Pups; illus. by Kiyoaki Komoda. T. Y. Crowell, 1968. 4 0p. $3.75. Mrs. George writes of the animal world with knowledge and enthusi- Ad asm, her descriptions of wild life untainted by melodrama or anthropo- 4-6 morphism. In this series of books (The Moon of the Bears, The Moon of the Owl, etc.) each illustrated by a different artist, the text is continuous and the tone verges on lyrical. The weakness of this book is its diffuse- ness, the story of the litter of fox pups being lost occasionally while the author focuses on some other creature. For example, the foxes pause to look up at a Baltimore oriole-there follows a page about the Baltimore oriole-and the text picks up the thread again with "The fox pups heard and saw, then trotted off behind their parents." Slow-paced, and the combination of diffused writing and the lack of index or table of contents means that this book, like others in the series, has browsing interest chiefly for the nature lover.

Harnett, Cynthia. The Great House; written and illus. by Cynthia Harnett. World, 1968. 190p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.86 net. As is always true of Miss Harnett's books, this one (set in England's Ad past) is notable for the authenticity of historical background and cultural 6-8 details, the latter amplified by precise drawings. The story line in this seventeenth century novel is dwarfed, in fact, by the mass of information, so that the book is almost more of historical than literary interest. Geof- frey and his younger sister Barbara go with their father, an architect, to stay at an inn near Ladybourne Hall, an old mansion whose owner has en- gaged father to build a new house. Geoffrey convinces the family to change the site, and the owner, Sir Humphrey, convinces father that Geoffrey should have the Oxford education he wants. The story line is not diverted by the minor characters and incidents, but it is not supported by them and seems, therefore, rather thin.

Havrevold, Finn. Undertow; tr. and illus. by Cathy Babcock Curry. Atheneum, 1968. 186p. Trade ed. $4.25; Library ed. $4.08 net. Translated from the Norwegian, a very good novel about two teenage R boys. JIrn, who tells the story, is rebelling against his pleasant middle- 6-9 class family who disapprove of his new friend, Ulf. Choosing to visit Ulf rather than share his own family's vacation, Jorn discovers that Ulf's parents are away and that a sailing trip is planned. Almost every day J rn learns something new about Ulf: he lies, he boasts, he steals (he has, indeed, stolen the boat they are using) and he is reckless and vain. Ulf dies when the boat capsizes, but the sobering realization of his own

[174] share in the escapade has already come to JIrn, as has the acceptance of the need, still, for parental guidance. A novel full of action, with a perceptive understanding of adolescent striving for independence.

Hoff, Syd. The Witch, the Cat, and the Baseball Bat. Grosset, 1968. 39p. illus. $2.50. The happiness of others is anathema to a witch, and that is why the M heroine of this picture book was so miserable when she went to a base- K-2 ball game. Infuriated, she made a bat with an invisible hole; next day she asked the players to use the bat she'd made them. Anything for a nice old lady, they said. (All small boys who know how carefully each player picks his favorite bat will protest.) Not until a bird flew through the invisible hole did anyone suspect the reason it had been a hitless game; the batter picked a new bat, got a homer, sent the crowd wild and the witch home in fury. The nonsense of the plot and the humor of the cartoon-style illustrations will appeal to some, but the storyline is slight and the ending anticlimactic.

Household, Geoffrey. Prisoner of the Indies; decorations by Warren Chappell. Little, 1968. 203p. $4.95. Based on the description of a real boy's experiences as recorded by Ad Hakluyt, this adventure story has plenty of action and good historical 7-9 background but it is written in a quite heavy style. Miles Philips signed on as cabin boy on a ship bound for New Spain in 1567. He was thirteen, and when-fifteen years later-the story ends, Miles had been a Spanish prisoner so long that he was able to escape to Spain under a Spanish alias, going from there to London.

Hiirlimann, Bettina. Barry; The Story of a Brave St. Bernard; illus. by Paul Nussbaumer. Harcourt, 1968. 27p. $4.25. There really was a dog named Barry. Trained by the monks of an R Alpine hospice, the dogs assisting in guide and rescue work were called K-3 St. Bernards because the mountain pass through which travelers were guided was the Great St. Bernard Pass. The story of Barry's training and his subsequent record of intelligence and bravery is affective although the style of writing-or perhaps translation-is stiff and a bit awkward. The illustrations are striking, especially those in color, since the color is used in bold and dramatic masses. Most of the full-page illustrations in color are faced by pages that have some text and a picture in black and white, the juxtaposition sometimes being obtrusive.

Jansson, Tove. Comet in Moominland; written and illus. by Tove Jansson; tr. by Elizabeth Portch. Walck, 1967. 192p. $4. Love comes to Moomintroll as he rambles across the land in an ef- R fort to learn the awful truth about the ominous comet that seems to be 3-5 on a collision course with the world. The comet veers off, and all are safe. The pending danger adds a bit of impetus, but the real appeal of the story, as in previous Moomintales, is in the motley collection of engaging and silly characters, among whom is the beguiling Snork Maiden who wins Moomintroll's heart.

[1751 Johnson, Annabel. Count Me Gone; by Annabel and Edgar Johnson. Simon and Schuster, 1968. 188p. $3.95. This seems a sincere attempt to probe the attitudes and conflicts of Ad the contemporary adolescent, but it is only moderately successful. Told 7-10 chiefly in flashback, the story describes the events that led eighteen- year-old Rion to a hospital bed following a car crash. The younger son of a middle-class suburban family, Rion felt restless because of parental pressure and because of his own aimless feelings about the future. The book lacks the vigor and cohesion of previous books by the Johnsons, and is written in quite a different style.

Kazakov, Yuri. Arcturus the Hunting Hound and Other Stories; tr. from the Rus- sian by Anne Terry White; illus. by Bradford Holland. Doubleday, 1968. 119p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $3.70 net. Translated from the Russian, five stories that are varied in subject Ad but alike both in quiet mood and in the pervasive awareness of natural 7-10 things. The tales are set in the forests and villages of the vast plains and uplands of Siberia. One tale is of a sixteen-year-old who yearns to translate into music the sounds and sights of the forest he loves, two others are about younger boys. The hound of the title story is blind, a dog who stubbornly hunts although he can see no quarry and gauge no enemy; the final story is not the most effective, but is the most cohesive: a circus bear inadvertently escapes and must learn to adjust to living in the wilds. All the writing is slow of pace, with little dialogue; the book's strength is in the vivid and evocative nature writing, and in the flowing style.

Keeping, Charles. Charley, Charlotte and the Golden Canary. Watts, 1967. 30p. illus. $3.95. As a story, this is weakened by contrivance; the setting is urban, the Ad plot simple. Living in a blighted London neighborhood, Charley and Char- K-2 lotte are best friends. When Charlotte's house is demolished, she moves to a high-rise building. The children miss each other. Charley buys a canary, and one day the bird escapes and leads him straight to Charlotte when it soars to her apartment balcony. The deficiencies of the story are more than compensated for by the brilliant beauty of the illustrations.

Klimenko, Galina. Russia in Pictures. Sterling, 1967. 64p. illus. Paperback ed. $1; Library ed. $1.99 net. A useful book despite the fact that a certain number of the many photo- Ad graphs are uninformative and that the tone of the writing occasionally 5-9 verges on that of a travel brochure. The material is divided into five ar- eas: the land, history, government, the people, and economy; the political commentary is fairly objective but quite guarded, and the coverage is balanced but shallow.

Lewis, Richard W., ed. Out of the Earth I Sing; Poetry and Songs of Primitive Peoples of the World. Norton, 1968. 144p. illus. Trade ed. $3.95; Li- brary ed. $3.73 net. R A delightful anthology, the dignified layout of pages and the handsome 3- photographs adding to its value; the latter are identified at the close of

[1761 the book; the songs and poetry are identified on the pages on which they appear. The illustrations are not matched by source but by mood or subject; the poems and songs are simple and moving, collected from sources the world over.

Lewis, Richard W., comp. The Wind and the Rain; Children's Poems; photographs by Helen Buttfield. Simon and Schuster, 1968. 44p. $3.95. Some of the poems in this slim book were first published in an official R school publication in New Zealand, some were in Miracles, a larger col- 3-5 lection of children's work edited by Mr. Lewis and reviewed in the March, 1967 issue of the Bulletin. The poems are accompanied by excellent photographs, of which only a few seem out of place. As the title indicates, the poems are about wind, rain, or other weather phenomena. Most of the selections are brief and almost all have some poignant or evocative ideas or phrases.

Lifton, Betty Jean. Kap and the Wicked Monkey; illus. by Eiichi Mitsui. Norton, 1968. 59p. Trade ed. $3.75; Library ed. $3.54 net. The legendary kappas (water elves of Japan) must keep water in the R shallow depression in the top of their heads-or they will die. Here a K-2 wicked monkey tricks a kappa prince, Kap, when the elf is hunting a way to save his sick father. A white crane, whose life Kap has saved, rescues the elf prince and enables him to outwit his enemy and revive his father. The story has action and humor; the illustrations combine vigorous movement and the inimitably furry softness of brush and ink.

Lionni, Leo. The Biggest House in the World. Pantheon Books, 1968. 29p. illus. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.99 net. Lionni is one of the illustrators who uses to best advantage the over- R size book; space and design are adapted to achieve a striking effect. Here 3-7 the colorful pictures support and complement the text in the best picture yrs. book tradition. The biggest house in the world is the huge shell, encrust- ed with dazzling superstructures, that belongs to a proud snail; hampered by the burden he has achieved by his own vain wishes, the snail dies-at least, that's the way a father snail tells it to his offspring when he ex- presses a wish for the biggest house in the world.

Lubell, Winifred. In a Running Brook; by Winifred and Cecil Lubell. Rand McNal- ly, 1968. 64p. illus. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.79 net. A description of the flora and fauna (chiefly the latter) of a mountain R brook, the material arranged in short sections ranging from one to four 4-6 pages. The tone is conversational, with an occasional lyric note; the information is accurate and interesting. The relative index adds to the book's usefulness, and the cool colors and precise drawing of the illustrations add to its appeal.

McCarthy, Agnes. The Impossibles; illus. by Gainsford. Doubleday, 1968. 108p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $3.70 net. Since all four boys have received Christmas presents that are suit- M able (camera kit, make-it-yourself weapon kit, etc.) they decide to form 3-4 a Secret Agents club. They spot a "criminal" who turns out to be an old

[177] resident, find a lost doll (snatched by a poodle) and decide a piece of junk sculpture is a time machine. And so on. There is a running scuffle with the neighborhood girls, but the two groups make peace eventually. The easy vocabulary and episodic structure may lure some readers, Jut the style is pedestrian and the dialogue often forced. There are some humor- ous moments in the book, but it lacks the spontaneity of Room 10, the author's earlier book.

Merriam, Eve. Epaminondas; retold by Eve Merriam; illus. by Trina Schart Hy- man. Follett, 1968. 32p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.99 net. A new version of an old storytelling favorite, with lively pictures of R the endearing small boy who took his mother's instructions with naive K-3 exactness. "Careful how you step on those pies!" his mother said, and Epaminondas, "good and careful," went out on the proch where the pies were cooling and stepped precisely in the middle of each one. The story ends with a kiss rather than a spank, an expression of Mama's acceptance of the fact that Epaminondas will not change, and of her love. The retelling has an engaging quality of simplicity and a bland humor; some storytellers may prefer their accustomed versions, some may prefer this.

Merrill, Jean. Red Riding; by Jean Merrill and Ronni Solbert. Pantheon Books, 1968. 30p. illus. Trade ed. $3.75; Library ed. $3.89 net. A free-wheeling version of Little Red Riding Hood as told by a small Ad girl to her even smaller brother. Katy has a few ideas of her own-"She K-2 had a whole closet of other clothes, too. But she liked her red hood best." Tony, however, blithely suggests extraneous material-"She had a sweat shirt. And cowboy boots. And a little hat with buttons pinned all over." Katy manages to fend off Tony's suggestions and stick fairly close to the story line. The illustrations are like a child's drawings, primitive but vigorous. The book is amusing, but it may perhaps be more amusing to the readers-aloud than to those to whom it is read, since the vagaries of a child's imagination often seem less capricious to the young than they do to adults.

Miles, Miska. Uncle Fonzo's Ford; illus. by Wendy Watson. Atlantic-Little, Brown, 1968. 56p. $3.25. A pleasant little look at family life in a small town early in the centu- R ry. Effie Riddle, embarrassed by the behavior of her Uncle Fonzo, felt 3-5 that he and Chester (who admired each other) deserved each other, since Chester was an annoying boy who teased Effie in school and out. Every- thing Uncle Fonzo touched seemed to go wrong; when Effie's sister was married, all the bridal party was held up because-the message came- Uncle Fonzo's car couldn't start. But Uncle Fonzo rose to the occasion -he hitched his Ford to Chester's horse, and he got them to the church in time. Not much substance, but good period atmosphere and warm family relationships.

Murray, David. Charles Percy of Illinois. Harper, 1968. 178p. $5.95. A child of the depression, Percy was a hard-working boy and a hard- Ad headed businessman whose solid virtues brought him early wealth. His 9- handsome family and the tragic murder of his daughter have added to

[1781 the public interest in his political career, and all of these aspects of his life are handled in adept reportorial writing style by the author. Although he is frank about Percy's liabilities or the occasional evidence of political naivet6, David Murray closes on a note of confidence that has a faint tinge of a supportive brochure.

Neurath, Marie. They Lived Like This in Ancient Peru; artist: Evelyn Worboys. Watts, 1967. 32p. Trade ed. $2.65; Library ed. $1.98 net. A rambling compilation of facts about the Inca culture, much of the M material being related to the illustrations of artifacts or architectural 3-5 details. The book should be useful because there is little about ancient Peru for this level of readers, but the fact that the material is neither organized nor indexed lessens its usefulness.

Neville, Emily Cheney. Traveler from a Small Kingdom; pictures by George Mocniak. Harper, 1968. 197p. Trade ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.27 net. The small kingdom of Emily Cheney Neville's childhood was the R Place, the small community of Cheney relations whose homes formed 5-7 a self-sufficient oasis in the middle of South Manchester, Connecticut. In 1927 there was money for maids and governesses, there was leisure to play with assorted cousins of the small kingdom, and there was little to prepare a seven-year-old Emily for the world outside, for the death of a mother and the depression that made it necessary to learn to cook. The story flows like a gentle stream, clear and candid, gravely shadowed yet never sad; the Emily who is described in third person is seen with objectivity.

Offit, Sidney. The Boy Who Made a Million; Mercer Mayer drew the pictures. St. Martin's, 1968. 148p. $3.95. Dreams of glory come true for fifteen-year-old Benny Burke. His Ad father is not well enough to keep up the grocery store; Benny steps in 6-9 and builds up an industrial empire. His friends (a Harlem genius and an ebullient Puerto Rican) help him, his uncle (a slightly beat academic) hinders, his teacher scolds. In the end, Benny finds that he has everything he wants, so he returns to normal teenage pursuits: he goes back to school and he is smitten by a girl. The dialogue is often improbably witty, but it is amusing, and the author's tongue is so firmly in cheek that the overtones lampooning society are seldom acidulous.

Pitt, Valerie. Let's Find Out About the City; pictures by Sheila Granda. Watts, 1968. 48p. $2.65. The bustle and color of a big city are reflected in the illustrations M that accompany a stilted text; the material seems only minimally useful 2-3 to the urban reader, since much of it is so familiar: people work at night, traffic lights are always in operation, buildings are tall, et cetera. The information about laws that protect the public interest, such as not smoking in department stores, or the facts about people who work for the public good, are useful but not unusual. The reader may receive the wrong impression from the statement that "Rules are called laws."

Place, Marian (Templeton). Rifles and War Bonnets. Washburn, 1968. 151p. $3.95.

[1791 A study of the two Negro troops (Ninth and Tenth Cavalry) led by Ad white officers that participated in the country's westward movement. 6-10 The commanding officer, Colonel Grierson, had little support from his immediate superior and was determined that the valor of his men be recognized. Struggling against such obstacles as inferior horses and equipment, discrimination, and constant harassment, the men proved to be outstanding soldiers in the years after the Civil War, when the country around the Rio Grande was being fought for and cleared. The record is impressive and the events are dramatic, but the book is weakened somewhat by the solid, serious style of writing. A bibliography and an index are appended.

Poole, Lynn. Men Who Dig Up History; by Lynn and Gray Poole. 175p. illus. $4. A most interesting compilation of brief accounts of the work of ten R contemporary archeologists: Anderson, Bass, Broneer, Gejvall, Haury, 7- Libby, Mallowan, Wheeler, Willy, and Yadin. There is some biographical information, but most of the book is devoted to the special fields or major projects of the scientists. Photographs of the ten men are included; an index is appended.

Price, Al. Haunted by a Paintbrush. Childrens Press, 1968. 30p. illus. Li- brary ed. $1.88 net. One of a new series of books about Negroes who realized their child- Ad hood goals. Mr. Price, a Chicago artist, was the son of a sharecropper 3-4 and was later adopted by a childless couple. While studying on the GI Bill, he injured his right hand and had to learn, painstakingly, to paint with his left hand. The simplicity of the writing style makes the book useful for older, poor readers, but it is weakened by the fragmented, continuous text and the uneven emphasis on isolated small events.

Raskin, Ellen. Spectacles. Atheneum, 1968. 41p. illus. Trade ed. $3.50; Li- brary ed. $3.41 net. An amusing picture book about the trials and errors of a small girl R who, unaware of her myopic misinterpretations, sees--fuzzily- strange K-2 creatures where only familiar objects exist. The distortion is cheerful- ly artificial; for example, the "ax" being held by an "Indian" is shown (all the pictures are in pairs, the real and the imagined) to be a lamp- shade that is sideways. Taken to a doctor, Iris puts up a stiff fight against spectacles, is won by the suggestion that she might look like a movie star, and is-as children so often are-enchanted by the new, clear world around her. The point is made with humor, the exaggera- tion enjoyable because it is deliberate.

Reggiani, Renee. Tomorrow and the Next Day; tr. from the Italian by Anne Chisholm. Coward-McCann, 1967. 254p. $3.95. Published in Italy in 1964 under the title Domani Dopodomani, a nov- Ad el about a young teacher who comes to a small Italian village to open a 6-9 school. There is no school; nobody has ordered a school established; the ignorant and superstitious villagers do not particularly care. Antonio uses every wile to lure the children, endures every rebuff from the adults. Slowly, slowly he wins students; even more slowly does he bring

[1801 them to see logical explanations of the magical powers they had dread- ed. The people are convincingly drawn as individuals, but the picture of their naive innocence is not so convincing: they have never heard of ra- dios and they think airplanes are birds; they are convinced that an echo is the spirit of a man drumming, and will not come near the spot.

Sasek, Miroslav. This is the United Nations. Macmillan, 1968. 60p. illus. $4.95. This is as tidy a job as Sasek has done, the text striking a happy bal- R ance between informal comment and straight factual material, and the 4-7 pictures doing fullest justice both to the United Nations buildings and to the artist's ability. The book describes both the functioning of the organization and the physical plant; especially striking are Sasek's presenta- tions of the works of other artists. A useful double-page spread shows the flags of all participating nations.

Scarf, Maggi. Meet Benjamin Franklin; illus. by Harry Beckhoff. Random House, 1968. 60p. (Step-Up Books) Trade ed. $1.95; Library ed. $2.49 net. A very simply written biography of Franklin, touching on the best- R known events and accomplishments of his long career. The writing is 2-4 a bit choppy because of the short sentences, but it is not too bland for the independent reader, and the very large print is an asset.

Simon, Norma. Ruthie; illus. by Tom Eaglin. Meredity, 1968. 180p. $4.95. A pleasant story, low-keyed and realistic, about a Jewish family in R Brooklyn during the depression. Ruthie is an only child, and she is both 4-6 lonely and worried when her mother is hospitalized, even though she is truly fond of the family she is visiting. The Felds are older than her own parents, and more strict about religious observances, and Ruthie feels a conflict here as she does about other problems. Although the milieu and the period are factors in the story, Ruthie's concerns are universal: ad- justing to a friend's demands, worry about her mother, and doubts about herself.

Snyder, Zilpha Keatley. Eyes in the Fishbowl; drawings by Alton Raible. Athene- um, 1968. 168p. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.81 net. Dion had been hanging around Alcott-Simpson's, the department store, Ad ever since he was eight years old. Many of the clerks had become his 6-9 friends, and he loved the store atmosphere-but something was wrong, he knew. Dion was right-something was so wrong that the store closed, and not until then did the lad learn that he had been the medium through which a fantasy had been enacted. The store had been taken over by the Others, a group summoned through Dion's mind by a woman with psychic powers. The fanciful element exists only within the store setting; Dion's home life is quite apart, quite realistic, and most perceptive since the author por- trays with great conviction the relationship between the moody boy and the generous, outgoing father he resents.

Steig, William. Roland the Minstrel Pig. Windmill, 1968. 32p. illus. Trade ed. $4.95; Library ed. $4.43 net. Ad An oversize book with amusing full-color pictures, carefully roman- K-2 ticized; the story is adequately told and-although there are some light

[181] touches in the writing-the plot is quite traditional: local pig makes good. Owner of a lovely voice and a knack for composition, Roland goes out into the world seeking wealth and fame; he is almost trapped and eaten by a cunning fox, but is saved at the last moment by the king, a lion in a litter. The story ends with the fox living in a dungeon, while Roland the trouba- dor achieves security and distinction.

Townsend, John Rowe. Pirate's Island. Lippincott, 1968. 159p. $3.75. Gordy was plump and pink-faced, with small eyes; his father was a R pork-butcher. Little wonder that the bullies of his tough neighborhood 5-7 teased him and called him "Porky," less wonder that his doting mother felt that her precious only child should stay safely at home and be com- forted with food. But Gordon met a younger child who jolted him out of his isolation: Sheila, a bedraggled nine-year-old whose thirst for adventure and glamor led the two into a chase for treasure, achieving new status for both of them. The setting-an area known as the Jungle-has appeared in a previous Townsend book; here again the vitality and tena- city of the characters emerge in sturdy contrast against the seamy background.

Wahl, Jan. Runaway Jonah and Other Tales; pictures by Uri Shulevitz. Macmil- lan, 1968. 42p. $3.95. Dramatic illustrations in a vigorous style, some brightened by humor, Ad enhance the retelling of five stories from the Old Testament: "Runaway K-2 Jonah," "Captain Noah," "Little Joseph," "Singing David," and "Good Daniel." There is little flavor of Biblical language and the tales are not impressive as literary fare, but they have a blithe vitality that makes them appealing as stories.

Walsh, John E. The Truants and Other Poems for Children; illus. by Edward Ardizzone. Rand McNally, 1968. 80p. $2.95. An excellent collection of poems, illustrated with charming small R drawings, and first published in England in 1965. "The Truants" de- 4-7 scribes the happy day of two boys who skip school and face, on their return, the scolding they've pushed from their minds. There are a few long poems, but most of the selections are short pieces, childlike but not childish; the writing is direct, with little humor and no senti- mentality, but with sensitivity and often with a note of wistfulness.

Ward, Philip. Tony's Steamer; illus. by James Armstrong. Little, 1968. 105p. $4.25. Wandering about in a waterfront urban neighborhood, Tony came Ad across an abandoned steamer. It quickly became his consuming inter- 5-6 est and his haven, awakening in him an interest in sailing and naval construction that led to library visits. His peaceful retreat was in- vaded by three older boys; they were tough kids, but one of them was friendly-despite the fact that he was a Negro from a tough uptown area and that Tony was white and wealthy. When one of the boys careless- ly dropped a cigarette, there was a fire; the next day the steamer was boarded up. And Tony's friends disappeared. The story has a sharply detailed setting and an economy of cast that add strength, but it is slow

[1821 of pace and static in mood, save for a small poignancy (ships-that-pass- in-the-night) at the very end.

Wiesner, William. The Tower of Babel. Viking, 1968. 26p. illus. Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $3.77 net. A proud ruler and a proud people are hoist by their own petard in R this simplified version of the story of King Nimrod and the Tower of K-2 Babel, freely adapted from the Old Testament. God, seeing the insolence and ambition of the people as the tower rose, punished mankind by divid- ing their languages; all building stopped, and the people-unable to understand each other-began to fight. The lesson is clear, the final pictures of a deserted tower in sharp contrast to the busy, colorful scenes of the earlier pages, which are wonderfully full of movement and vitality.

Wise, William. Sir Howard the Coward; illus. by Susan Perl. Putnam, 1968. 64p. (See and Read Books) Library ed. $2.86 net. The elaborately ridiculous drawings of a freckled, lanky, and bespec- Ad tacled young knight contribute a good deal of humor to a lampoon of the 3-4 feudal hero that is considerably overextended. Sir Howard, son of a famous warrior, always has a perfectly good excuse for not fighting, like -"I've just sent my sword out to be fixed." When a hornet gets inside his armor, Sir Howard's terrible scream routs the ferocious enemy, and the coward is acclaimed a hero. Modestly, he tries to explain, but his people are happily convinced that he is Sir Howard the Hero. The plot moves along a fairly obvious path but the brisk writing and humor save the book from mediocrity.

Wojciechowska, Maia. A Single Light. Harper, 1968. 149p. Trade ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.27 net. A story that establishes a mood and a situation, then introduces one Ad new element that shatters the delicate balance of affairs. A motherless 7-10 girl in an Andalusian village is a pariah; a congenital deaf-mute, the girl is rejected by her father and taken in by the priest, her only love and all her love being a statue of the Infant Jesus. The harsh realities of peasant life and its superstition are beautifully drawn, the pathos of the lonely girl very real. When an American comes hunting a lost art treasure, the girl runs away with her marble Baby and the village erupts into violence; yet out of this comes greater understanding for the American, for the priest, and-one hopes-for the villagers. The shift of focus to the milieu of the dillettante American is jarring, since the story has been so solidly established in the Andalusian setting.

Wood, James Playsted. Boston; illus. by Robert Frankenberg. Seabury, 1967. 144p. $3.95. A good history of Boston from the time of the Puritan Agreement in Ad England, made as the plans to sail to America were being laid, to the 6-9 current program of urban renewal. The writing style is lively and informal, the information interesting; the book is weakened by a recur- rent note of effusion.

Zolotow, Charlotte (Shapiro). My Friend John; pictures by Ben Shecter. Harper, 1968. 32p. Trade ed. $2.50; Library ed. $2.57 net.

[183] "John is my best friend and I'm his, and everything that's important R about each other we like." That's the ending of the book, and all the pages 4-7 that precede it are a hymn in praise of friendship. The message is clear. yrs. Friends know all about each other, even the weak spots. "We always stick together because I'm good at fights, but John's the only one beside my family who knows I sleep with my light on at night." The writing is direct and simple, the insight remarkable, the pictures engaging.
