(3) K-3 Retold by Lauren Mills. Illustrated by Lauren Mills. Andersen's classic tale of a tiny girl is retold with graceful language that remains faithful to the original. Precise watercolor illustrations depict Thumbelina with delicate features and auburn tresses. The toads, field mouse, mole, sparrow, and flowers are rendered true to nature, and an abundance of whimsical touches bring to life Thumbelina's miniature world.
