Here's a marvelous picture book, charmingly written and beautifully illustrated, about the power of memory and the magic of friendship.
Llewellyn, a little rabbit, is a collector. He gathers things in jars--ordinary things like buttercups, feathers, and heart-shaped stones. Then he meets another rabbit, Evelyn, and together they begin to collect extraordinary things--like rainbows, the sound of the ocean, and the wind just before snow falls. And, best of all, when they hold the jars and peer inside, they remember all the wonderful things they've seen and done. But one day, Evelyn has sad news: Her family is moving away. How can the two friends continue their magical collection--and their special friendship--from afar?
Deborah Marcero is the author and illustrator of the picture books In a Jar, which was called “stunning” in a starred review from Kirkus Reviews and “beguiling” by the Wall Street Journal; Out of a Jar, which was an Entertainment Weekly Best Book of the Year and an ALA Notable Children's Book; Hope in a Jar; and The Great Escape, as well as the Little Bunny series of season-themed board books. She also wrote and illustrated the picture book My Heart Is a Compass and the Haylee and Comet emerging reader series.
