Sylvette is a shy little girl, but her neighbor happens to be the artist Pablo Picasso. Attracted by Sylvette’s classical facial profile and her lovely ponytail hair style, Picasso convinces her to overcome her shyness and pose for a series of artworks. These drawings, paintings, and sculptures soon become world famous, and encouraged to abandon her shyness, Sylvette herself begins a career as a fine artist. This is a title in Barron’s Anholt’s Artists Books for Children series, in which author and illustrator Laurence Anholt recalls memorable and sometimes amusing moments when the lives of the artists were touched by children. Anholt’s fine illustrations appear on every page and include reproductions of works by the artists.

Pickle-Chiffon Pie by Jolly Roger Bradfield tells the story of a king who loves pickle chiffon pie. However, he has a beautiful daughter which means all the princes in the land like to come over for dinner. That means less pickle-chiffon pie for the king. In order to solve his problem, the king gives the three best princes a test and tells them that the winner will get to marry the princess. Each prince must go to the forest and find the most wonderful thing. The one who finds the very most wonderful thing will be the winner! As each prince explores the forest they find many wonderful things, but it turns out the most wonderful thing of all is not what any of them expected.

Pickle-Chiffon Pie is a story without a villain. No fighting, no bloodshed, but still exciting and fast-moving. It is a tale that stretches the imagination: the reader must accept a juggling lion (six cans of root beer at once!) and a sixteen-footed Gazoo. Not a hard assignment for a child, but perhaps a bit more difficult for a worldly grown-up.

Pierre, sick and confined to bed, cannot play with other children. He must find his enjoyment in what he sees outside his window: the sky above and the canal below. Pierre discovers beauty in the daily sights and sounds that enter his open window and they become his companions.
One day Pierre hears strange noises coming from the canal. Young boys have come into the quiet canal, shattering Pierre's peaceful routine. They see Pierre in his window ana an unusual relationship develops between Pierre and the group of boys, as they come back again and again.
During a local holiday, Pierre receives a surprise visit from his companions, and in an exuberant ceremony he is made mayor of the city.
When the boys return to the canal several days later, Pierre's window is empty. Before he died, however, Pierre left a gift with his grandfather for each of his friends.
