3. 'Pandora,' by Victoria Turnbull

Pandora (Clarion Books, 32 pp., ages 3 to 7), by award-winning author-illustrator Victoria Turnbull, tells the story of a little fox that lives in a different kind of outdoors. Pandora inhabits a land of broken and cast-off items. Very cleverly, she has built herself a 鈥渉andsome home,鈥 but she remains alone, until one day, a bird in need of help finds its way to her 鈥 and nothing will ever be the same again. Turnbull鈥檚 watercolor and colored pencil drawings make this story of friendship and growth an atmospheric delight.
