It all began on a lavender blue daythe kind of day when anything can happen. It was on such a day that Anna Lavinias father saw a double rainbow and went chasing after it. And it is on such a day that she and her cat, Strawberry, set off on their journey beyond the walled garden where the pawpaw trees grow, to a place where the buttercups bloom pink and the laws of gravity dont always apply. Here Anna Lavinia will test her mothers advice Never believe what you see, against her fathers wise words Believe only what you see, and just maybe shell finally be able to use the mysterious silver key her father left behind when he went chasing after rainbows.

is a tour through a land as strange and wonderful as Oz, filled with people as delightfully batty as any in Alices looking glass. It is a place to return to again and again, beautifully brought to life in Palmer Browns fanciful words and intricate, sugar-spun drawings.
