Orderly. Dull as gray paint. Very...numberly. But our five jaunty heroes weren't willing to accept that this was all there could be. They knew there had to be more. <p/>So they broke out hard hats and welders, hammers and glue guns, and they started knocking some numbers together. Removing a piece here. Adding a piece there. At first, it was awful. But the five kept at it, and soon it was...artful! One letter after another emerged, until there were twenty-six. Twenty-six letters--and they were beautiful. All colorful, shiny, and new. Exactly what our heroes didn't even know they were missing. <p/>And when the letters entered the world, something truly wondrous began to happen...Pizza! Jelly beans! Color! Books! <p/>Based on the award-winning app, this is William Joyce and Moonbot's Metropolis-inspired homage to everyone who knows there is more to life than shades of black and gray.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>William Joyce does a lot of stuff but children's books are his true bailiwick (The Guardians series, Dinosaur Bob series, <i> George Shrinks</i>, and the #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling <i>The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore</i>, which is also his Academy Award-winning short film, to name a few).
