(4) K-3 After stuffed-animal friends Hopper and Wilson--an elephant and a mouse, respectively--imagine what it's like at the end of the world, they set sail in a newspaper boat to find out. Even during this contemplative (a little overly so) story's most dramatic moment--Hopper falls overboard--van Lieshout's spell of calm is unbroken, thanks to her tempered colors and expanses of white.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
