PreS-Gr 1—Disney animation artist Keane delivers her picture book debut with a cartoon fantasy awash in mostly pink and purple pastels . At bedtime, ethereal dreams take over Celeste's ponderings on the ideal gift for her mother. The wind carries her into the sky to star princesses and a castle. The moon tells her stories, and then the sun princess greets her at dawn with a cup of tea. The next morning, inspired by her travels, Celeste gathers flowers that sparkle like stars and blossoms that glow like the moon, then ties them with a red hair ribbon, to provide her mother the perfect present.
VERDICT Fairy fans will be pleased with this modest tale.
