Milli, Jack, and the Dancing Cat

(3) K-3 Milli is secretly a found-object artist but lacks the confidence to do anything but make boring shoes for the villagers--until wandering minstrels Jack and the Dancing Cat blow into town and teach her to dance and, by extension, be "brave and free." The message is well played and captured by King's loose, zesty ink and watercolor illustrations.
