The Eisner-winning cartoonist and the author of 3x4, Wordplay, Comics: Easy As ABC, and Shapes and Shapes​ joined the hosts of the Unpacking Peanuts​ podcast for a chat about Charlie Brown, Charles Schultz, and whether you should keep trying to kick life's footballs. (Hint: You should!)

The praise keepscoming! We're overjoyed with all the great things the Wall Street Journal has to say about Shapes and Shapes: “This is the sort of picture book that moves easily from the lap into the world, encouraging children ages 3-6 to recognize the shapes around them hiding in plain sight.” But don’t take our word for it, you can read the full review here.

An Award for Caterpillars!

Congratulations to Kevin McCloskey! His Caterpillars: What Will I be When I Get to be Me? has garnered one of the 2023 Good Housekeeping Kids’ Book Awards in the Early Readers Category!

"This nonfiction caterpillar-themed story seamlessly blends facts and humor — a feat that’s even more impressive considering that it mostly limits itself to common sight words for kindergartners and first-graders...You’ve got company, Dr. Seuss."

Have a great week, and we'll be back in your inbox with more TOON news before you know it!
