Caldecott, Indeed...

Here's a little story from Lucy. I sense a bit of Hemingway in there somewhere. Tragedy, wry humor, friendship, it's all there...

Once upon a time there was a little girl named Alison. She went into the skooky forest. It was the skookiest forest. She played and played and then a skooky monster ran across the field and into the woods. His name was Skooky.

He went in the forest and he was chasing the little girl. And THEN when he was chasing, it found it's mom and dad so it's stopped! Then she was not scared. THE END. And then she went home!
