Children will relate to Elliot's experiences." --<i>The Horn Book</i> <p/>* "Curato, a debut author and illustrator, tucks several gentle messages into one simple story that's perfect for the age group. It is, however, his almost cinematic artwork that's the real showstopper." --<i>Booklist</i>, starred review <p/>"A tiny, spotted elephant tackles the challenges of city life . . . The simple story is told in 17 short sentences that allow Curato's magnificent 1940s-style illustrations to carry the tale." --<i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>* "He's a terrific emerging talent, with gorgeously rendered images that bring to mind the moodiness of Chris Van Allsburg and the sweetness of William Joyce." --<i>Publisher's Weekly</i>, starred review</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Mike Curato</b> is the author and illustrator of a number of picture books, including <i>Little Elliot, Big City, Little Elliot, Big Family</i>, and<i> Little Elliot, Big Fun. </i>You can find him on any given day walking around the city eating a cupcake (or thinking about it).
