Island, Mark Janssen's new picture book is out and it's a really beautiful Book. There are no words in this book but still it tells a story. You can make up the the details yourself, we do it together with the little monsters.
When a boat is shipwrecked with a father with his daughter and their dog on board they luckily wash up on the shore of a small island. But ... is this little island what it seems to be?
The prints in this large format picture book are stunning, they look like paintings. There is a lot to see on them and the bright, tropical colours make the prints so lively! The little monsters love the book, they happily fantasize away ;))
3+ wonderful clear stars for Island, from all the little viewers and the big readers!
