Illustrated by
Sima Elizabeth Shefrin.
The world of fairy tales is woven into one child's nighttime routine of bathtime, storytime, and bedtime. Colorful, textured cut-paper collages depict fairy-tale toys--and their stories--coming to life through a girl's fully absorbed imaginative play in the bathtub. Though the meditative, poetic text can be hard to follow (and the cursive font hard to read), there are some enchanting moments.
