Eve Bunting was the beloved, award-winning author of more than two
hundred and fifty books for young people, including the Caldecott
Medal-winning Smoky Night, illustrated by David Diaz, The Wall, Fly
Away Home, and Train to Somewhere.
Emily Arnold McCully received the Caldecott Medal for Mirette on
the High Wire. The illustrator of more than 40 books for young
readers, she has a lifelong interest in history and feminist
issues. She divides her time between Chatham, New York, and New
York City.

life."

dash of modern silliness to her twist on familiar lore." --
Publishers Weekly"A great read-aloud, this will strike a chord with
children who...can't resist a little mischievous fun." --
Booklist"Charming watercolors...A perfect choice for March story
hours, this title can also be enjoyed all year long." -- School

the playful story." -- Horn Book Magazine
