(4) K-3 Illustrated by Dean Morrissey. Bits of old toys and machinery have been melded together into an unusual conveyance--the Crimson Comet--that carries Nora and her brother, Jack, on a journey to find out why the light of the moon has disappeared. Mundane text is bolstered by the imaginative, painterly illustrations, which display an engaging mix of fantasy and realism.
