Illustrated by
Adam Payne.
"Bird fish bear snake / Ocean river puddle lake." A girl with a lantern embarks on a dreamlike exploration of a landscape that is both familiar and mysterious. The terse, poetic text is compelling but may be confusing to young children. Cut-paper collage illustrations vividly portray a child's discovery of an archetypal yet imaginary world.
