118H: Picture book about a child that gets trapped in the reflection of water which is fairyland

Picture book with almost watercolor like illustrations of pink and grey. Much whitespace.  About a child (boy/girl don’t remember) and he/she looks into the reflection of the water (lake?) and fairy land is on the other side.  He/she falls in and is trapped and cannot get home? Read in mid/late 80s.

    There’s a similar setup in The Silver Nutmeg by Palmer Brown. You might want to see if other details match. (It looks like his books are being reissued now. While I don’t see this one reissued yet, just be aware of this if you are looking for specific illustrations.)
