George and His Shadow

In the spirit of Leo: A Ghost Story and Tomi Ungerer’s Crictor comes a funny and charming reminder that good friends aren’t made instantly. George and his shadow are two peas in a pod. The shadow (who just appears at breakfast one day) follows George everywhere, and what’s worse is that he seems to be better at things than George is! George wishes the shadow would get lost, but then when he does go-George misses him. Just like real friends. With an adorable animal companion, Cali and Bloch have created a picture book that feels modern and timeless.
