Publisher Description: Look It's a book Starring a brother and sister who go to the zoo, see kangaroos and baboons, and get to bring home balloons Told entirely in words that contain a double o, this playful story is a great choice for emerging readers. Bright illustrations and an engaging, interactive text will invite repeated readings. Hooray A brother and sister can't wait to go to the zoo, where they have an exciting day ahead full of food, balloons, baboons, and so much more. This playful concept-and-story book is ideal for new readers. Author-illustrator Fiona Woodcock's spare text uses only words containing double o's, an important concept for early literacy. Each word is cleverly woven into stunning illustrations. And it all ends with a bedtime book, of course. Good night |
Contributor Bio(s): Woodcock, Fiona: - Fiona Woodcock knew from a very early age that she wanted to grow up and make art for a living. Since graduating from the Glasgow School of Art in Scotland, she has been living in London and working on animated films, commercials, and other illustration projects. Her pictures have a paper-based handmade origin, incorporating drawings made with children's BLO pens, hand-cut stencils, and printing techniques. Her debut picture book, Hiding Heidi, was nominated for the Kate Greenaway Award in 2017. A pair of celebratory New Year's 2003 glasses served as the original inspiration for Look, since the double numbers transformed into double letters in her doodles. And once Fiona discovered that her own last name, Woodcock, contains a double OO, she was hooked! www.fionawoodcock.com |
