Garcia & Colette Go Exploring

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Andrew Joyner. Rabbit Garcia and fox Colette can't agree whether to explore space or the sea. After Garcia builds a rocket and Colette a submarine, the friends embark on separate journeys but quickly grow lonely. They eventually agree that exploring the desert together satisfies both their interests. Simplistic text draws parallels between Garcia and Colette's divergent trips, elevated by mixed-media illustrations that evoke a playful, retro style.
