Using just nine words, the award-winning creator of Chalk takes readers on another unforgettable journey. When three children discover a typewriter on a carousel, they are transported on an adventure of their own creation―complete with a giant beach ball and a threatening crab. Stunning, richly colored artwork is paired with limited text so children can tell their own version of the story.

Bill Thomson is the celebrated creator of Chalk and Fossil and the illustrator of Baseball Hour, Karate Hour, Soccer Hour, and Building with Dad, all written by Carol Nevius. Thomson’s books have received many accolades: the National Parenting Publications Gold Award, designation as a Notable Children’s Book by the American Library Association, a Teachers’ Choices selection from the International Reading Association, a Booklist Editors’ Choice, the Connecticut Book Award for Children’s Illustrator, Kentucky’s Bluegrass Award, Ohio’s Buckeye Children’s & Teen Book Award, and the Prix Livrentête in Paris, France. Thomson’s artwork has also received more than seventy-five awards in the country’s most prestigious juried illustration competitions.

Thomson lives with his family in Southington, Connecticut, and is also a professor of illustration at the University of Hartford. To see more of his artwork, visit www.billthomson.com.
