Product Overview
In his first book since Time Flies, his Caldecott Honor debut, Eric Rohmann transports a young boy in a magical sailboat to a lush tropical island inhabited by six cats with eyes like blazing coals.Rohmann's magnificent oil paintings draw the eye seamlessly from page to page, adding layers of complexity to a deceptively simple storyline. His palette reaches effortlessly from the brilliance of a tropical day to the glow of a starlit night, while his scenes range from breathtaking ocean vistas to the meticulously detailed and expressive creatures. The Cinder-Eyed Cats is both a sumptuous feast for the eye and a virtuoso feat of picture storytelling.
Time Flies , a wordless picture book, is inspired by the theory that birds are the modern relatives of dinosaurs.This story conveys the tale of a bird trapped in a dinosaur exhibit at a natural history museum.Through Eric's use of color, readers can actually see the bird enter into a mouth of a dinosaur, and then escape unscathed.
