Kathleen O'Grady creates the wondrous world of Patti Kay - luminous with
blue-eyed beetles, fireflies, waltzing petunias, Lish the goldfish, calico kittens
mewing in falsetto, and orange kangaroos singing "Old King Cole was a merry old
soul...."

This is a story of the transformative power of a child's imagination and the role
adults can play in the birth of creativity. Children and adults will revel in the story
and the brilliant woodcuts by Brona Keenan.

Picture book.  For advanced readers aged 6-8 years of age.
