The Story Tree: Tales to Read Aloud
Hugh Lupton. Barefoot Books, $18.99 (64pp) ISBN 978-1-84148-312-2
The Story Tree: Tales to Read Aloud by Hugh Lipton offers seven retellings from around the world. Some will be familiar to youngsters, such as the Norwegian ""The Three Billy Goats Gruff."" Others, such as ""Little Lord Feather-Frock"" from Russia and India's ""Monkey-See, Monkey-Do,"" may be new. Lipton's text winds itself through Sophie Fatus's equally narrative illustrations, each with a different mood and palette. ( Sept.)
