Wildflowers: Toon Level 2

By Liniers

Book Overview

"WHERE THE OTHER WILD THINGS ARE...An older sister to Sendak's work, maybe taking place on the next island over from Max's wild rumpus."--The New York Times

"A wildly imaginative tale, spangled by magic realism and Argentine conflation of reality and fantasy." --Variety

A celebration of the magical bonds that unite children

When her two big sisters embark on an adventure to explore a mysterious island, the youngest one doesn't want to be left behind--even if she does need her sisters' help to read the sign that says "Only Reality Can Kill a Dragon". Along the way, the sisters discover gorilla houses, popcorn falling from the sky like snow, and yes, a dragon that only reality can kill. What shines through from this funny story's gut-wrenchingly scary beginning ("There was a terrible plane crash ") to its sweet and satisfying ending is LINIERS's admiration for the imaginative powers of childhood.
