(4) K-3 The narrator watches as his cat drives a car pulling some unusual cargo. Three dead European writers, a black swan and some dwarfs, a snow globe filled with butterflies, for example--and each group asks him a question. The dreamlike narrative may mystify young readers, but the illustrations, most double-page spreads with absurdist touches, arrest the eye and activate the imagination.
