Flyaway Katie

40 pp. | Candlewick | July, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-7636-2366-0 $$14.99
(4) K-3 Inspired by a colorful painting, Katie tries to cheer herself up by donning brightly colored garments and painting her body. Suddenly a "flittery / fluttery / flighty / fizzling" feeling pulls her into the painting. Readers may, likewise, long to romp in Dunbar's fantastical mixed-media art, but they may also wonder where Katie's reality ends (does she really paint her face blue?) and fantasy begins.
