Chalk by Bill Thomson
A story told in pictures, Chalk is about three children finding some chalk on a riding dinosaur at the park. When they use the chalk, some kind of magic makes their drawings real! A sun chases away the rain clouds, butterflies appear, and so does a real dinosaur! One of the children draws a cloud and some rain drops, and they wash away the drawings, and the real things, the children leave the chalk where you found it and continue it on their body.

Mr. Wuffles! By David Wiesner
Mr. Wuffles doesn’t like any of the toys his own gives him. He prefers to play with a little spaceship. It turns out that there are tiny little aliens in that spaceship! Something on their ship breaks when the cat plays with the ship, so they set out to find parts to fix it. They narrowly escape death when a ladybug appears to distract the cat. The aliens and the ants become friends. The aliens fix the part, and manage to escape out an open window. Now, Mr. Wuffles has nothing that he wants to play with again.
