This is a watercolor interpretation of "Dear Mili" by Wilhelm Grimm (author of such favorites as "Snow-White," "Cinderella," and "Rumpelstiltskin"). The story tells of the magical journey a little girl takes when her mother sends her into the woods to escape a terrible war. Origionally written in a letter in 1816, the story was not available to the public until 1983. The first edition was published in 1988, with beautiful illustrations by Maurice Sendak.
