Table of Contents

Praise for SPLASH! A Little Book About Bouncing Back:

“Set against white backgrounds, the artwork pairs spare lines with blue watercolor washes. Onomatopoeia enlivens the simple text. This tale conveys feelings from a child’s point of view, depicting the way that youngsters perceive their world and suggesting that they can control their destiny. Splash brings sunshine to a gloomy day.”--School Library Journal
 
“Molly Leach’s design integrates the text into the pictures, guiding the page turns expertly. A wee trim makes this a charmingly intimate read.”--Kirkus Reviews
 
"The book's chief strength is the interplay of the expressive drawings and the concise text, supported by gutsy typographical treatment...The design, credited to Molly Leach, deserves top marks."--Publishers Weekly
 
Praise for BLOOM! by Maria van Lieshout:

“As light and sweet as cotton candy, this saga of a pig in love will win over kids and grownups alike. Van Lieshout’s loosely drawn pen and ink illustration, mostly on stark white pages, wring Oscar-winning expressions from the slenderest curves and squiggles . . .Van Lieshout’s deft use of line comes through in Bloom’s distressed dismay, a cross between toddler meltdown and Juliet, which is happily cut short by the attentions of Bloom’s faithful swine swain. This paper-over-board’s stylish design and small square format designate it as a natural for Valentine's Day.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review
