I saw the author perform Swap! at an event, and it made for an engaging read-aloud, as the audience joined in, shouting "Swap!" at every exchange. This story type, in which a series of exchanges is made, until the hero(s) finally reach their intended goal, reminds me of similar folktales I have encountered from diverse traditions, as well as such classic picture-books as Elsa Beskow's Pelle's New Suit. The detailed artwork is immensely appealing, with that same combination of pen and ink drawings and judiciously-used color accents that made Have You Seen My Dragon? and Have You Seen My Monster? so successful. Recommended to all young would-be pirates, and to anyone looking for children's stories about problem solving. ( )
