Thumbelina by Amy Ehrlich
This book is most beautifully illustrated Thumbelina I have been able to find. The images have a Victorian/Edwardian bent to them. Jeffers' retelling is a little shorter than many others, with less reliance on the original text.
Beautifully illustrated biography, simplified for kids.
A young lemming is haunted by doubts about the purpose of the great march westward to the sea.
