A boy sets off to draw a mountain in this thoughtful exploration of art and the creative process. For fans of Hike by Pete Oswald.
A little boy, who is a keen artist, becomes obsessed with a mountain he can see from his house. One day, he tries to draw the mountain, but his drawing doesn’t look anything like it, so he decides that he has to take a closer look. He sets off with his dog, drawing what he sees along the way, and making a growing collection of animal companions during his hike. But when he finally reaches the mountain, the boy makes a discovery about the importance of perspective and friendship which changes how he views the world around him.
Both a powerful exploration of art and a sweet ode to hiking, this picture book from acclaimed author-illustrator Marianna Coppo and her partner, Mario Bellini, will inspire readers young and old to stop and take the time to appreciate both the world around them and others who inhabit it.LOVABLE CHARACTERS: Marianna has a knack for creating charming, positive characters, and the little boy and his entourage of animal companions are no exception.
CAPTIVATING ART: Marianna’s characters are adorable and her stylized, graphic art is striking, especially in terms of the landscapes and the boy’s notebook sketches.
LOTS OF HOOKS: This is an exploration of mindfulness and a love letter to the creative process. There’s something for every reader here.
THE GREAT OUTDOORS: This story will inspire an appreciation of the outdoors and hiking in young readers.
RISING STAR: Marianna Coppo’s profile is on the rise! Petra has sold over 18k copies LTD and was shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway Medal in the UK. She has a growing online fanbase of over 8,000 Instagram followers (and over 8,000 followers on Behance).
MORE TO COME: We have another project signed with Marianna — a follow-up to Whose Poo? (Who Did That?) in Fall 2022.Marketing: Continue to brand Marianna Coppo’s books and raise her profile as a creator
