In her debut picture book, Simona Ciraola creates an endearing tale of friendship, beautifully illustrated with buoyant wit and the perfect story to share.
Simona Ciraolo is a Sardinian born author and illustrator whose witty and endearing tales recently won her the Sebastian Walker Award. Ciraolo studied animation at the National Film School in Turin, Italy, before moving to the UK where she undertook an MA in Children's Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. She has also worked as a freelance 2D animator for children's TV shows and illustrated five picture books for an independent Italian publisher. Simona lives in London.
This is one of the loveliest and heart-warming stories around, with
gorgeous illustrations to boot. A wonderful picture book that
deserves a spot on your bookshelves.
*Book Trust*
Ciraolo's softly drawn cartoon cacti radiate charm- Felipe has a
tiny pink flower on his head and a range of emotive
expressions.
*Publishers Weekly*
A sweet celebration of connection and inner softness in a culture
that encourages hard individualism and prickly exteriors.
