Really more of a short chapter-book than a picture-book - there are five brief chapters, although the book can't be more than forty pages long - Quimble Wood features an engaging story by Bodecker and sweet black and white artwork by Branka Starr. I did finding myself wondering a little bit about the Quimbles - what were they, exactly? living dolls? miniature people? - and wishing that more background information had been given about them, but then again, other readers might enjoy the mystery created by the in-medias-res opening. The illustrations look to be done in pencil, and have an interesting shaded quality to them, with lots of vertical lines. All in all, this was a charming little fantasy, one that will appeal to readers who enjoy stories like The Borrowers or The Littles. ( )
