(4) K-3 Translated by Elisa Amado. Illustrated by Mandana Sadat. A young girl moves her hand and enters a surreal fantasy world that is subtly composed of items in her living room. Sadat's richly textured and brightly colored illustrations (in pencil, crayon, and digital techniques) atop ink-black backgrounds are visually compelling, but unfortunately the spare poem is not as fluid in English as it is in Spanish.
