Reviews
PreSchool-Grade 3-Raven, who confessed to thievery in Who Stole the Gold? (North-South, 2000), stands accused of taking Ferret's raspberry pile and eating it. The case seems sealed when Mouse discovers a berry beneath Raven's tree. But Raven's hurt feelings and protests lead all of the animals to look once more for evidence and, sure enough, an ant procession is carrying the berries off. When they confront the queen of the colony, she says that her ants are not thieves but are merely cleaning up the forest. She agrees to give back the fruit and all enjoy a great feast. Less didactic than its predecessor, this story points out how circumstantial evidence and a prior "conviction" can sway otherwise reasonable friends to make false assumptions. Gukova's paintings depict the animals in fuzzy, fluffy shapes while a series of changing perspectives on the action lends visual interest to the story.
