THE SKULL by Jon Klassen
Popular picture book author/illustrator, Jon Klassen, recently released THE SKULL. Based on a retelling of a traditional Tyrolean folktale, the slightly scary tale features Otilla, a runaway girl looking for a place to call her own.
Klassen's signature illustrations are at times chilling as they enhance Otilla's tale. After a grueling trek through the forest, she arrives at a huge house where she is greeted by the Skull. Together, they help each other and soon become friends.
THE SKULL is perfect for reading aloud or independently, and as the author recommends, rereading frequently.
