Grandpa for Sale

32 pp. | Flashlight | April, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-9729225-8-6 $15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by T. Kyle Gentry. At Oldman's Antiques, young Lizzie is dusting the wares when Mrs. Bradley Larchmont III, with her poodle Giselle, attempts to buy Lizzie's snoozing grandpa. Rejecting increasingly tempting offers, Lizzie finally rings up "No Sale" to end the book. This odd story is fleshed out with exaggerated mixed-media illustrations that make effective use of both jewel-toned color and black and white.
