Starred Review:

In the Meadow of Fantasies

A haunting fairy tale about the worlds built by simple acts of generosity, this picture book follows a girl and her seven imaginary horses—some of whom are blessed with gifts like homes, and dreams, and shades of being, but one of whom is not. The seventh horse benefits from the kindness of the rest. Delicate line illustrations with dazzling touches—pools of color; trees sprouting from imaginative heads; moonlit celebrations—are used to follow along as he, and the girl, blossom.
