Isle of You

(3) PS Illustrated by Jamie Kim. After a "hard day," a sad child is whisked away to a dreamland where wonderful entertainment is in store. The unnamed narrator calls the place the "Isle of You," a purposeful play on "I love you" and the narrator's final message to the soothed child. The frolicsome wish-fulfillment combined with Kim's dreamy, candy-colored illustrations makes this story, like the Isle, an appealing escape from reality.
