The Hinky-Pink: An Old Tale

48 pp. | Atheneum/Jackson | September, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-689-87588-5 $16.99
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Brian Floca. Anabel must sew a princess's gown for the Butterfly Ball. Unfortunately, a pest she can't spot--a Hinky-Pink--keeps disrupting her sleep. Each night she fashions it a bed, until she's finally able to satisfy it--just in time. McDonald embroiders her tale with colorful language; Floca's nimble pen lines are washed in warm colors, bubbling with energy and verve.
