“Wooden Maria” by Teri Chung
“Wooden Maria is an Italian version of the fairytale “All-Fur” or “Donkey Skin.” The princess of the story gets three gorgeous dresses (usually of sun, moon, and stars) and one hideous dress/coat which she hides her true identity in. In Wooden Maria, the three dresses are of the flowered meadow, the ocean, and the universe and I thought it would be fun to illustrate them.”

A Little Bit of Magic
This is a 6-inch tall door at the bottom of a tree at Lake Harriet in Minneapolis. People of all ages leave around 1500 notes behind the door every year, and every single one of them is answered. Each reply ends with, “I believe in you.” No one has seen the elf, but he’s known as “Mr. Little Guy”
