The Little Match Girl

The Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen, illustrated by Rachel Isadora

The luminous art of three-time Caldecott Honor recipient Jerry Pinkney transforms the nineteenth-century Danish girl of Andersen's tale into a child plucked straight from America's melting pot, shedding new light on the invisibility of the poor among the prosperous - a circumstance as familiar in Andersen's day as it is in our own.
