"What can this be in the foggy, foggy forest?" Using black silhouettes on vellum paper, Sharratt creates a fog-covered setting. Each spread reveals a surprise fairy-tale character, both well known (the Three Bears) and generic (a little elf). Sharratt's couplets hit a few flat notes, but readers will enjoy journeying through the fog as well as peering back at what they've uncovered.
