PS
Lonely little Sophie is used to playing dolls and dress-up by herself until she meets a goose at the park whom she plays with and wants to bring home. "But Mom says no." The story isn't very well developed (wait: now Mom says yes?), but Wall's digitally finished charcoal illustrations are notable for their clean lines, saturated colors, and frolicsome energy.
