and over again." —School Library Journal, starred review

conventional boundaries and turning accidents into
art." —Booklist, starred review

Praise for THE STORY OF FISH AND SNAIL:
"This marvelous metabook shines in both concept and
beauty."—Kirkus, starred review

be more vividly conveyed, and the resolution of the conflict
between two sweet friends provides encouragement for other 'snails'
to try new things.” —Publishers Weekly
“…[a] sweet little story…” —School Library Journal
“Freedman’s paintings, brimming with raucous, three-dimensional
splashes of color, bring to mind David Wiesner’s Art & Max.” —New
