(2) K-3 Illustrated by Tomie dePaola. MacLachlan's lyrical text combines with ethereal illustrations by dePaola in this simultaneously nostalgic and fresh bedtime book. As the sky slowly darkens, mime Pierrot and his child wait for the moon to rise and encounter animals settling down for the night. References to twinkling little stars evoke one famed nursery rhyme; a dog jumping over the moon is a playful twist on another.

(3) PS Dennis is "an ordinary boy" who happens to be a mime. Misunderstood, "Dennis felt INVISIBLE" until "one day Dennis kicked an IMAGINARY ball..." and a new friend catches it. This tale of individuality, acceptance, and true friendship expresses loads of emotion quietly, the way a skilled mime should. In pencil with digital coloring, Yoon's striking compositions on tawny pages recall Golden Age cinema.

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Gérard DuBois. In this biography of Marcel Marceau (alter-ego, mime Bip), declarative sentences artfully capture the performer's essence. The emphasis is on Marceau as an artist, but Schubert doesn't shy away from his persecution as a Jew during the Holocaust. DuBois's vigorous illustrations strikingly cast Marceau as a mostly white figure against black backgrounds. An afterword and miming tips are appended. Reading list.
