Wildflowers: Special Gift Edition
"WHERE THE OTHER WILD THINGS ARE...An older sister to Sendak's work, maybe taking place on the next island over from Max's wild rumpus."--The New York Times Book Review
A celebration of the magical bonds that unite children!
When her two big sisters embark on an adventure to explore a mysterious island, the youngest one doesn't want to be left behind. What shines through from this funny story's gut-wrenchingly scary beginning ("There was a terrible plane crash!") to its sweet and satisfying ending is LINIERS's admiration for the imaginative powers of childhood.
Wildflowers is available in two sizes: TOON Level 2 for beginning readers (6" x 9") and a larger Special Gift Edition perfect for story time (7.25" x 11").

Like children's backyard play, sheer delight." --Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW ★★★ "A charming celebration of nature, siblinghood, and imaginative play." --the Horn Book Magazine, STARRED REVIEW ★★★"A dazzling ode to the magic of childhood. A Must for all graphic novel collections."--School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW "WHERE THE OTHER WILD THINGS ARE...An older sister to Sendak's work, maybe taking place on the next island over from Max's wild rumpus." --the New York Times "Designed by Liniers and TOON Editorial Director Françoise Mouly, Wildflowers is a small gem of a children's hardcover book--a sweet end to Liniers's fatherly trilogy [...] Liniers knows these girls, and he knows how to balance cuteness against trouble. What he has done with TOON so far--well, it's one of the lovelier runs in today's children's comics."--featured review "We Are Flowers, Wild Ones" by Charles Hatfield of SOLRAD, the online literary magazine for comics "A wildly imaginative tale, spangled by magic realism and Argentine conflation of reality and fantasy." --Variety "A winsome comic, perfectly pitched to emerging readers."--Booklist "Quirky and endearing, it's a journey both internal and external."--Publishers Weekly
"A comfortable reminder of the power of imagination."--School Library Journal's Good Comics for Kids
