Two new books in a series about problems and emotions. In Mummy, Mummy, Where Are You? Jessie gets lost in a big department store and must find help. Pay Up, Or Else! is about Robert and his best friend Philip, who is discovered stealing for a gang of bullies. The stories are sensitive and realistic, and the montage style illustrations use a variety of artistic mediums - cartoons, photographs, chalk, torn paper, etc. These add to the emotional impact very effectively. A worthwhile series, particularly for the classroom.
