The Tub People

Pam Conrad. HarperCollins, $6.99 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-06-443306-8

According to PW, Conrad's debut--a `simple yet sophisticated'' tale of wooden figures inhabiting a bathtub--``maintains a childlike point of view without becoming coy or condescending''; the artwork uses ``realism, color and perspective to stunningly good effect.'' Ages 4-8. (May)
