(4) K-3 Illustrated by Erin McGuire. Rylant does an adequate job of telling the popular tale in her own words, with a unique spin on the lesson to be learned: "It just took Time." Whether that interpretation will satisfy readers is an open question. McGuire's cartoony digital illustrations are bland but inoffensive, though readers obsessed with princesses may long for more sparkle.
