FUNNY: Picture book buyers are always on the hunt for books that will make kids burst into giggles. With a girl who's too good, and gets eaten by a lion for her troubles, this is sure to become a favorite. A SUBVERSIVE SELLS:A SUBVERSIVE SELLS: Like an homage to Maurice Sendak's Pierre, and with just the right amount of cheekiness, Fairgray and Burke's text meets the criteria of appealing to both kids and the parents who will have to reread the story night after night after night.
A HOUSE AUTHOR/ILLUSTARTOR: Richard Fairgray is Sky Pony's bestselling picture book author. This is fifth book with us, and he's gotten back to what he does best, delivering incredibly detailed artwork and incredibly clever premises. #OWNVOICES: Fairgray has a condition that makes him legally blind, and he continues to illustrates and draws comics with a level of detail that few can achieve. WELL-REVIEWED: Receiving consistently strong reviews across the trades, we hope to continue to grow Fairgray within the institutional market, while building on his cross-over appeal.
