Abstract:
Roxaboxen: Alice McLerran reveals her world of Roxaboxen. A treasured land where sand and rocks, wooden boxes, greasewood and Ocotillo magically change into streets, lovely homes, and two ice cream shops. All you need for a visit is a soaring imagination.
Weslandia: During summer vacation, young Wesley decides to plant a garden. He soon finds that he has instead created his own civilization - the gardenâ‚‚s plants bear strange fruit, providing food, clothing, shelter, even recreation.
Hey Al!: This 1987 Caldecott Medal winner is a sharp, wry, and tender story about Al and his faithful dog, Eddie. They journey to a paradise and discover that home is the best place after all.
Imogene's antlers: Imogene wakes up one morning to discover she has grown antlers. After a good night's sleep, Imogene's problem appears to be resolved... or is it?
Tiberius, a Florentine painter, tells his granddaughter of an adventure when the portraits of the old masters came to life and how he learned new meaning to the words "immortal masterpiece"!
