The sweet coincidence of a hopeful dog, a resourceful girl and an anxious juggler plays out in the pages of “Lucy," a light and delicious illustrated tale for 5- to 8-year-olds...This elegant book is so infused with serendipity that what’s really a foregone conclusion nonetheless feels, at the end, like a happy surprise.
