The Hero of Little Street: Gregory Rogers
What a romp; a fun, wordless adventure that starts with a chase, ends with a chase – and yes, there’s a bit of chasing in the middle. Rogers is the master of illustrating from many perspectives, giving his books pace, excitement and humour.
This third book about the Boy has him entering the world of Vermeer as he escapes to an art gallery from menacing boys. Beckoned by a dog in a painting the Boy ultimately becomes a pied piper of canines who turns the tables on the menacing boys. This charming, comical picture book about an endearing character will keep young minds entertained with the intricate detail and clever sequences.
Ages 4 and up.
