The Big Princess

32 pp. | Candlewick | May, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-7459-5 $16.99
(2) K-3 In this companion to The Tiny King with a welcome adoption-story aspect, a childless king finds a bug-size princess. His and the queen's love for her grows daily--as does the princess. How to stop her from outgrowing the castle (and the family)? Digital collages feature improbably harmonizing elements: geometric shapes coexist with realistic imagery, and characters with Hello Kitty–like blank faces live out emotional scenes.
