(2) 4-6 New York Review Children's Collection series. Illustrated by Nicolas Bentley. In this reissue of a Carnegie Award winner two sisters drink a magic potion that turns them into kangaroos, help a puma and a falcon regain their freedom, solve the mystery of a disappearing ostrich egg, and rescue their imprisoned father from an evil tyrant. This wildly inventive British fantasy begs to be read aloud.
