Description
"But what Emily Jenkins and Chris Appelhansā lyrical collaboration is really about is the intoxicating thrill of friendship, and boundless joy of play..." āThe New York Times
A āmerry read-aloud.ā āThe Wall Street Journal
Winner of the 2018 Zena Sutherland Award for Best Text
From a heavyweight author and illustrator duo comes a delicious tongue twister of a picture book that features a little round greyhound and a little round groundhog.
With very spare, incredibly lively language, this is an entertaining read-aloud, with two amazingāand oh-so-adorableācharacters at its heart.
When a greyhound meets a groundhog, wordplay and crazy antics ensue. The two animals, much like kids, work themselves into a frenzy as they whirl around and around one another. (Around, round hound. Around, groundhog!) The pace picks up (Around and around and astound and astound!), until they ultimately wear themselves out.
āJenkinsās masterful text is deceptively simple.ā āNPR on Toys Meet Snow by Emily Jenkins
āAppelhans, whose career up to now has been in animated films such as Coraline, is a revelation.ā āBooklist, Starred, on Sparky!, illustrated by Chris Appelhans
āAppelhans makes an auspicious picture book debut with strikingly beautiful watercolor and pencil illustrations. His style, reminiscent of Jon Klassenās, incorporates a muted color palette, but with a slightly softer, rounder quality, while also weaving in visual deadpan humor.ā āThe Horn Book
