Description
Book SynopsisIn this debut picture book, a boy who wants to fit into his seemingly perfect family discovers the beauty of (and appreciation for) imperfection.
Trade Review"The mayhem itself is solid slapstick, and the buildup is well-paced... Decidedly delightful." --Kirkus Reviews "Graham's sweetly odd characters, goth-lite vibe, and gift for exaggeration may remind readers of offbeat fare such as Coraline or James and the Giant Peach... [R]eaders will come away recognizing the value in not letting the perfect be the enemy of the good, as well as investing energy in pursuits one actually enjoys." --Publishers Weekly "This story is witty and reassuring and features brilliant visual details." --Horn Book Guide Reviews "Hilarious details are scattered cleverly throughout this story, which is sure to become a favorite." --Foreword Reviews "The mixed-media illustrations create a world that is quirky yet familiar as Percival learns about acceptance." --Skipping Stones magazine
