I recently read this book and I would have to say it is a must read! It was a whole new twist on writing that I really enjoyed. The book is around 600 pages but almost 300 are full of the authors original drawings. It's almost like a novel/graphic novel all combined into one book. If you are looking for a good book to read choose this one! :)

I haven't read this, but I've been meaning to for a long time. The amazing thing about this book is that it's the only novel ever to receive a Caldecott award! So, not only is it a good novel, but it was chosen as the best picture book in it's year!
ReplyDeleteI love how the pictures fill in for the words. It really adds to the suspense.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Cass, this is definitely worth reading!
