Reissue (1985, Potter)
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Helen Craig. Mouse Angelina eagerly awaits the May Day Fair--until her parents tell her she must take along her younger cousin, Henry. The story's denouement is weak (Angelina has a change of heart after Henry gets lost). But like most Angelina books, this will be savored not for its plot but for the dainty detailed illustrations in muted pastel hues.
