(2) PS Illustrated by Juli Kangas. In this different perspective on some of the meanest characters around, witches, wolves, and others make their way to a bat-bedecked castle at sunset to get ready for bed. Underwood's rhyming text extends the story in creative ways: a giant who's scared a princess may be hiding under his bed, for example. Kangas uses watercolors with oil washes to create vibrant colors with depth.

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Juli Kangas. Lucy's teddy bear Theodore gets mixed up with the laundry. When he emerges, he's so clean that Lucy doesn't recognize him. A friendly dog and two disputing cats help remedy the situation, and Lucy and Theodore are happily reunited. The simple story, new varied watercolor illustrations, and well-designed format make a book that is all of a piece--unpretentious and charming.
