Item Description
We love Leslie Patricelli. Her board books are so graphically bold, visually compelling and funny; they don't look like shrunken-down versions of picture books that secretly wish they were bigger, and they're not insipid pastel-y things that make mod parents want to kill themselves.
This piece is 12" x12"; it's acrylic painted on canvas paper. The title is "This is Blankie" from her book BLANKIE (you'll find it on page 2).
Leslie is also the author of (among others) YUMMY YUCKY, QUIET LOUD, POTTY, BINKY, NO NO YES YES and HIGHER HIGHER. School Library Journal called her board books "captivating" and Booklist says of her work "[t]he acrylic paintings, in which heavy black outlines boldly define shapes and intensify the colors within them, pare down the scenes to focus attention on what is essential to the story." (Personal note: HIGHER HIGHER literally made me cry, which is crazy because it's a book a 3-year-old can adore, hello. I do believe it is a work of genius.)
