An Atlas of Imaginary Places

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ana De Lima. An omniscient narrator encourages readers to peruse this "atlas," which is dedicated to a "make-believe world." Spreads are devoted to a city that rains fish, a volcano that spews not lava but bubble gum, etc.; endpapers offer an aerial view of the fantasyland. Set to intricate psychedelic art, this reads like "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" for the picture-book crowd.
