A harsh tale of greed, fraternal cruelty and terrible punishment, The Rumor of Pavel & Paali has something of the Greek tragedy about it. Sensitive younger children may find the themes too disturbing, but older readers will appreciate Carole Kismaric's gripping narrative, and Charles Mikolaycak's intense illustrations. Mikolaycak is an artist with a talent for capturing emotion, and his faces - whether evil or good - have real power. Beautifully designed, with colorful folkloric accents, this is a book that readers will find visually hypnotic. ( )
