The Tea Party In The Woods, I can picture myself invited as well in this enchanting tale!

A lovely book to have had on my table and to read today, though not winter where I am I hear that even though it is April, Colorado has had quite a bit of snow. This lovely tale by Akiko Miyakoshi  was thoughtfully written and beautifully illustrated.  With child like wonder and the possibilities that come from  a thoughtful imagination this book would make a lovely gift for a tea loving friend  or young child.

Kikko sets out after her father with a forgotten pie for Grandma. When she arrives at a strange house in the wintry woods, a peek in the window reveals that the footprints Kikko had been following did not belong to her father at all, but to a bear in a long coat and hat! Alice in Wonderland meets Little Red Riding Hood in this charmed tale.
