The Lion and the Little Red Bird
by Elisa Kleven
Penguin USA
From an author-illustrator whose work has been said to "burgeon with joy" and to bring "enchanted satisfaction, " here is a gentle mystery about friendship, delicately told and illustrated. Kleven's folkloric collage art creates a richly populated world in which a little red bird delights in what she cannot fathom, and a lion enjoys what he doesn't understand.
