3 whimsical short stories submitted by wampishing on June 25, 2013, 9:20am Fox sisters Zelda and Ivy don't want to eat cucumber sandwiches yet again, so they run away to the backyard. But backyard living is awfully bereft of snacks. In two more tales, time capsules and creative cures for writers block follow. Each story depicts the subtle sibling dynamic of the more assertive Zelda and more compliant Ivy without favoring one over the other. Bright gouche illustrations, with gritty black linework, complement accessible writing for the early reader, though perhaps the illustrations might not provide enough clues to the reader as to the connection between picture and text. Still, this expressive, easily digestible set of stories hold all the whimsy of childhood.
