Today over at Kirkus, I take a look at Francesca Sanna’s The Journey (Flying Eye, September 2016). That is here.

Last week, I wrote here about Kate Beaton’s King Baby (Levine/Scholastic, September 2016) and Vera Brosgol’s Leave Me Alone! (Roaring Brook, September 2016). I’ve got art from each book here today.

Enjoy!
