Cordell, Matthew

Hello! Hello!

(2) K-3 A leaf tempts a girl outdoors, away from her many electronic screens. Outdoors, the grayness of inside gives way to abundant color and energetic black lines. Cordell then turns the contrast way up, with the girl's hearty "Hello, world!" and her horseback ride that becomes a parade of animals. Sure, it's message-y, but the message comes with whimsical cartoon art and a keen sense of humor.
