Böcker av Gabe Jensen

OCTOBER 2024 HOT OFF THE PRESS CHILDREN'S BOOK COUNCIL PICK With a cast of characters as quirky as the artwork by author and illustrator Gabe Jensen, Nocturnal Nico follows the title character as he resists bedtime, mirroring the nocturnal creatures outside in the moonlight Nico doesn’t want to sleep—he must be nocturnal! Like the owl in the tree, Nico is alert. Like the bat flying in the night, Nico isn’t afraid of the dark—or is he? With comic-like illustrations and obscure nocturnal animals throughout, this picture book will help your little night owl get to bed. Hopefully! Includes one page of backmatter explaining the difference between nocturnal and diurnal animals and the adaptations that allow them to thrive at night.

There was a dog named Neverwoof, and never did he woof. He chased a siren. Woo woo woo.He saved a baby. Boo hoo hoo.He got high-fives from the fire crew. But never did he woof. Everyone in town knows Neverwoof is a good dog-so quiet, so composed. But when danger is in the house, will he find his bark? With rhyming text that begs to be read aloud and retro-style art in pantone color, Neverwoof is a hilarious picture book with a surprising twist!
