Some great books

Lucy is in bed when a frog hops in and gives her an invitation to a birthday party and a magic paper hat. When she dons the hat, she becomes as "little as a leaf" and sets out through the garden for the celebration. She accepts a ride in a taxi that looks like a nest and is driven by a baby bird who's afraid to fly. On their way, they pick up various other animals and are threatened by an owl who wants to eat them. Lucy finds a doll lost long ago by her grandmother, attends the party, and returns home. She removes the hat and is once again full-sized. Like a dream, this story was wonderful

"If you were a number you'd be zero."
