Annotation:
A small boy, a strange noise in the forest, and an important task create a mysterious picture book. Little Liam wakes in the night after hearing something not quite right in the woods outside. Papa is gone, and Mama is sleeping deeply, oblivious. Liam must find a way to protect them, despite his tiny stature. With illustrations.
| Praise| "This adrenaline-charged romp is, first and foremost, exciting. Jutte's lively cartoon artwork contrasts muted night colors to form powerful images: big sky, big forest, big shadows, big night, big bear, big roar, small boy." 03/01/2009 |
