Publisher Description: One morning, when George walks into his kitchen, he finds someone sitting at his table. "Who are you?" he asks. "I'm your shadow," answers the shadow. The shadow follows George--for a walk on the street, fishing on the pier at Coney Island, and everywhere else George goes. Who is this shadow? Is he an annoying pest? Is he a friend? Or is he both? From the award-winning pair behind I Can't Wait and The Enemy comes a sweet, silly, and often poignant look at how unexpected friendship can be. With mod, quirky art full of personality from Serge Bloch (Butterflies in My Stomach and The Big Adventure of a Little Line) and a disarming text from Davide Cali (I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . .), George and His Shadow is charming Perfect for fans of Leo: A Ghost Story and Imaginary Fred. |
