The Storm in the Barn by Matt Phelan

4.0

I am not a big fan of magical realism. I like my books to either be fantasy or realistic. However, in this book, Matt Phelan mixes the historical story of the Dust Bowl perfectly with a bit of magic that he throws in. He adds it in almost as a legend to fit with his sister's Oz stories and Ernie's Jack stories. And once again, Phelan's watercolor illustrations were beautiful.
