      Fans of celebrated author/illustrator Peter Reynolds will be delighted with this imaginative audio/picture-book production of his modern-day fable. In an engaging style, Reynolds introduces young listeners to Violet, a little girl who loves spending time with her family--especially those precious moments when they are making memories together around their table. When the distractions of technology cause family members to drift apart and the beloved table disappears, it is Violet who must devise a clever plan to bring them all back together. Reynolds enhances his story's evocative imagery through his use of color in simple, expressive illustrations. A playful musical score and subtle sound effects add depth and set the tone for this gentle reminder to prioritize what matters most in our busy lives.
