I’ve got a review over at BookPage of Cynthia Rylant’s Life (Beach Lane Books, June 2017), illustrated by Caldecott Honor artist Brendan Wenzel.

The review is here, and I’ve got some spreads from the book here at 7-Imp today.

Enjoy!



 


“… trust the rabbit in the field and the deer who crosses your path.
Trust the wolf and the wild geese who find their way back home.”

One comment to “A Slice of Life”

  1. Good Evening, Having missed a few months on this Blog, I am glad to find all of the neat and fun reading sites I often do not pick up on. The Graphic Novel Reporter web site is totally fun. Also, my nephew when a teenager, loved rock, blues and to find Mr. Piskor who met and possibly worked with blues/rock illustrator Robert Crumb was fantastic find. Thanks. atk
