Staff Pick
Smith's warm, quaint art style is perfect for fans of Brambly Hedge by Jill Barklem. The small town of Fairhurst is usually just as tranquil, except for Old Oak Road, where cars zoom past with no regard for small, hungry woodland creatures trying to cross to get to the blackberry bushes. This charming picture book is perfect for fans of Make Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey or of local government. Recommended By Sarah B., Powells.com
