If you've ever talked to a HarperStacks team member at a conference, you know we love a good cry when we read. This was a book that stopped us all in our tracks (or at least interrupted our to-do list until we finished the whole thing in one sitting). I'm thrilled to get to finally share this one with the world and I think you'll really enjoy sharing it with your readers. Thinking it would be great for book clubs? We thought so too and created a discussion guide to help you out!
Drawn Onward, by Printz Award winner Daniel Nayeri and illustrator Matt Rockefeller is a true work of art. The first picture book from Harper Alley uses a palindromic format to tell a hopeful and heartfelt story of grief that readers will want to visit over and over. Read on to hear about Daniel and Matt's writing and illustrating process.
