BOOKS BY DICK KING-SMITH
ILLUSTRATED BY NICK BRUEL
|
Nick Bruel will be illustrating 5 wonderful books by Dick King-Smith, the acclaimed author of "Babe, the Sheep-pig" and "The Waterhorse", which has also been made into a movie coming to theaters this Christmas.
None of these 5 books have ever been printed in the U.S. The
first one is "HAIRY HEZEKIAH", about a camel that escapes from the zoo.
•••••••
King-Smith
expertly juggles the comedic and the informational—readers may be
surprised by how much they will learn about the species—Bruel’s (Poor Puppy) cartoon art enhances both the initial poignancy and the playfulness of this tale. Ages 7-10.
