{"product_id":"fern-and-otto-isbn-9780593481325","title":"Fern and Otto","description":"\u003cb\u003ePerfect for fans of Erin Stead and Emily Winfield Martin, here is a charming paperback picture book about two friends who enter a fairy-tale world hoping to find an exciting story to tell.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen best friends Fern, a bear, and Otto, a cat, go searching for an exciting story in the forest, they have different ideas about what that means. Fern thinks they should stop and watch a race between a tortoise and a hare, but Otto worries that a tortoise is too slow to be exciting. Fern thinks listening to the three brothers talking about how to build a house is incredibly interesting, but Otto isn't convinced. Along the way, the two friends meet a little girl in red who is off to visit her grandmother (and a wolf headed the same way!), a cranky girl complaining that her porridge isn't the right temperature, and many others. But it's not until they run into a big scary witch that they can both agree: this is not the kind of excitement they had in mind. With irresistible illustrations and tons of charming details, this is a delightful fantasy that proves the best adventures are the ones you share.\u003cb\u003ePraise for\u003ci\u003e Fern and Otto\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“The whole work is deceptively simple yet visually complex, encouraging close inspection and multiple rereads…. [A] delightful friendship story.” \u003ci\u003e—School Library Journal, Starred Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eLittle Fox in the Forest:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Young children will pore over this wordless picture book again and again, finding something new to enjoy each time.\" \u003ci\u003e—\u003ci\u003eKirkus\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\"A charming, fantastical twist on the backyard adventure.\" \u003ci\u003e—\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003c\/i\u003eThis is a story not just to read but to inhabit.\" \u003ci\u003e—\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Viewers can pick up skills in decoding visual narrative while also getting a chance to breathlessly root around in some serious cuteness.\" \u003ci\u003e—Bulletin, starred review\u003c\/i\u003eStephanie Graegin received her BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Arts and her MFA in printmaking from the Pratt Institute.
