The Little Red Fish

(4) K-3 When his little red fish disappears into a library book, JeJe literally falls into the pages with it and soon finds himself clinging to a flamingo's leg. Although the books-can-transport-readers-to-other-worlds allegory isn't particularly fresh, Yoo's shadowy sepia-toned etchings conjure up a dreamy, magical setting, and her deft blurring of fantasy and reality calls to mind Van Allsburg and Wiesner.
