Since I have a really difficult time waiting for a book to be released, I thought I’d release a tantalizing bit of MINE! via a book trailer.
Hope you like it! I love, love, love Patrice Barton’s illustrations for our book!
And—just in case you haven’t heard . . . MINE! has gotten two great reviews thus far. (And both are starred reviews!)
From the stars so far:
Starred Review, Publishers Weekly, April 18, 2011:
"Crum uses only the title word (if you don’t count a single "Woof?"), but the various inflections speak volumes about the comic dynamics of sharing…[Barton's] dizzyingly expressive digitized pencil sketches seem to be everywhere at once continually reframing the action to make sure readers savor every gleefully anarchic moment."
Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews, May 15, 2011:
"The capricious artwork has touches of Helen Oxenbury and Marla Frazee’s babies, smudgy, digitized pencil sketches full of movement and joy…This charming, animated episode will elicit giggles and demands of ‘read it again!‘"
Enjoy!!
And be good-share,
