Jerry Pinkney's retelling of The Lion and the Mouse is fantastic. Masterful watercolor paintings combined the most simple text will provide the reader with a truly aesthetic experience.
I have read this fable many times, but I have never experienced it like I did this version. This book has moved to the top of my list in regards to Pinkney's work.
Although I have a PhD and I am a professor of education, I cannot spell at all. As a matter of fact, I am self-diagnosed LD in spelling. Soooooo, beware of copious amounts of spelling errors. I will correct all I can, but I will not sacrifice my energy to write (LOL) by going to http://www.dictionary.com/ just to correct a word. If the spellchecker picks it up then great.
So reader you have been warned! Anything goes when it comes to spelling within this blog! Enjoy! (excerpt from my first post)
