About Chu's Day Board Book

Product description A New York Times bestselling picture book from Newbery Medal winning author Neil Gaiman and acclaimed illustrator Adam Rex now available, by popular request, as a board book. Chu is a little panda with a big sneeze. When Chu sneezes, bad things happen. But as Chu and his parents visit the library, the diner, and the circus, will anyone hear Chu when he starts to feel a familiar tickle in his nose? Chu's Day is a story that shows how even the smallest child can make big things happen. From School Library Journal PreS—The orderly routine of Chu's daily life, which include a trip to the library and lunch at a diner, is upended when the adorable little panda sneezes. Rex's gorgeous, rich illustrations depict an enchantingly old-fashioned world of hilariously anthropomorphized beasts. The satisfying chaos that ensues when an "Achoo!" turns everything upside down will have readers giggling again and again. Review “Kids will find the idea of a monstrous sneeze funny, and it may prompt some attempts of their own. Rex’s richly detailed illustrations are brimming with fantastic touches. Share this one at toddler storytime for lots of giggles, or one-on-one for spotting details in the art.” (Booklist) “Gaiman’s comic timing gets a boost from strategic book design and from Rex’s hyperreal paintings, which emphasize Chu’s round, fuzzy form and apparent harmlessness. Gaiman and Rex deliver a classic one-two-three punch, making hay from the notion that a cuddly baby panda is not to be trusted.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review)) From the Back Cover Chu is a little panda with a big sneeze.When Chu sneezes, bad things happen.Will Chu sneeze today?
