Born on The Night When Shadows Linger, Holly Go Lolly played with shadows all her life. And that was a lucky thing for her, because when the Ooboo came to eat her up, she used her mysterious shadows to work a trick on him. Newbery Award–winner Nancy Willard weaves a magic spell with the extraordinary story of Holly Go Lolly and the Ooboo, which Caldecott Award–winning illustrator David Diaz illuminates with dazzling art.
