Into the Forest

(2) K-3 A boy wakes to find his dad inexplicably absent and is sent by his sad mom to bring cake to his ailing grandma. He takes the forest route, where fairy-tale characters lurk among watchful-eyed trees. Grandma welcomes him, feeling better; and Dad's there, too, ready and happy to come home. Browne's art eloquently expresses the feelings of a child too young to fully comprehend pivotal family events.
