(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicoletta Ceccoli. A girl lives in a small castle exhibit in a museum, and children peer into the windows trying to catch sight of her. She dreams of friends, and at the end readers are invited to "leave a picture of yourself here for me." The self-consciously ethereal tone and misty mixed-media illustrations won't appeal to everyone, but dreamers will enjoy the fantasy.
