  <default_description>&lt;div&gt;At the Van Gogh Cafe, &lt;i&gt;anything&lt;/i&gt; can happen. Clara's dad owns the cafe, and she's seen it all--from food that cooks by itself to poems that foretell the future. This award-winning collection of vignettes by Newbery medalist Cynthia Rylant is a treat to be relished. So bring your appetite for the unexpected, because at the Van Gogh Cafe, your order of tea and toast comes with a side of magic!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[ I actually think that this may have deserved some Newbery Honor consideration for 1996. Cynthia Rylant has cooked up a story of not-so-subtle magic that is, nonetheless, difficult to pin down exactly. Ever since lightning struck at the Van Gogh Cafe, special, hard-to-explain things have happened, b...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/52209831">more...</a>]]></body>
