‘The Princess and the Pea’ (retold) by Lauren Child.
Theme: traditional tale.
Real princesses are hard to find these days. You just have to wait for one to come to you. And if one does, just to be sure, make her bed of twelve feather mattresses, and, and underneath place a small green pea. Then wait for the morning and if she wakes up all black and blue, you’ll know you have indeed found a real princess.

‘Harold and the Purple Crayon’ by Crockett Johnson
“One night, after thinking it over for some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight.”
Armed only with an over-sized purple crayon, Harold draws himself a landscape full of beauty and excitement. He conducts his adventure with the utmost care, letting his imagination run free, but keeping his wits about him all the while. This magical journey gives us the wondrous sense that anything is possible. This joyful story has delighted readers of all ages for over fifty years.
