From School Library Journal K-Gr 3—Young Tokyo lives with his mother, father, grandfather, and cat in a small house that his grandfather has lived in since childhood. The text is neither too simple nor too complex but just what is needed to relate this imaginative tale of environmentalism. One day, Tokyo is gifted three seeds, which he plants in a tiny space by the house. Grandfather suggests that Tokyo come up with a solution. The illustrations, created digitally with watercolor, ink drawings, and collage, are big and blocky and could be used in and of themselves as an art lesson on the illusion of space through collage.

Can the good of increasing the purity of Vesani gold, bringing a veritable flood of foreign money to the city, be negated by the fact that Basso prospered more than anyone else? Can the Enfranchisement Act, a measure that finally grants citizenship to the various immigrants that make up so much of Vesani life, be really diminished because its primary aims were to allow Basso to marry who he wanted and to insure a massive influx of newly enfranchised voters that would never be loyal to anyone but him?The Folding Knife isn't devoid of the occasional blemish.
