About Pawcasso

Product Description Remy Lai, the award-winning creator of Pie in the Sky makes her middle-grade graphic novel debut, Pawcasso, about the unexpected friendship between the loneliest girl in class and the coolest canine in town."It's tail-wagging entertaining!" ―Kelly Yang, New York Times bestselling author of Front Desk Every Saturday, Pawcasso trots into town with a basket, a shopping list, and cash in paw to buy groceries for his family. One day, he passes eleven-year-old Jo, peering out the window of her house, bored and lonely. Astonished by the sight of an adorable basket-toting dog on his own, Jo follows Pawcasso, and when she’s seen alongside him by a group of kids from her school, they mistake her for Pawcasso’s owner. Excited to make new friends, Jo reluctantly hides the truth and agrees to let “her” dog model for an art class the kids attend. What could go wrong? But what starts as a Chihuahua-sized lie quickly grows Great Dane-sized when animal control receives complaints about a dog roaming the streets off-leash. With Pawcasso’s freedom at stake, is Jo willing to spill the truth and risk her new friendships?"A beautifully drawn and delightful story bursting with art, books, and fun!" ―Maria Scrivan, New York Times bestselling author of Nat Enough and Forget Me Nat Review "A skillfully woven story of acceptance and forgiveness. These concepts aren’t easy to present to a young audience in an upbeat way, but Remy Lai succeeds: The dog provides both reliable comfort and comedic relief. . .

This cute and charming story of missing family, making friends, and figuring out how to make amends is a fun treat, and the subplot about learning how to mend strife in a community adds meaningful depth." ―Booklist, starred review"Move over, Jeff Kinney . . . Lai’s finger is always precisely on the pulse of kid humor." ―Horn Book "Pawsitively charming." ―Kirkus"Lai tenderly crafts a tale of friendship, loss, and the risks involved in letting people in, encouraging readers to love deeply." ―Publishers Weekly"A page-turning delight, and a must for dog lovers." ―School Library Journal"Readers will delight in the ups and downs of Jo’s journey and fall for both her and her canine pal." ―The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"Lai’s candy-colored, cartoon-style illustrations are a delightful complement to this cute, clever romp. A gentle story of community, forgiveness and redemption." ―BookPagePraise for Fly on the WallA Best Book of the Year for Kirkus, Booklist, Chicago Public Library, and School Library Journal! “Funny, enthralling, and a great reminder that being a little odd isn’t a bad thing.” ―Kayla Miller, author of Click and Camp "Bright, funny storytelling . . . in this sharp, sweet story there is much to connect with." ―The New York Times Book Review* "Near-misses and laugh-out-loud moments abound, which will endear it to readers who like 'Big Nate' and 'Wimpy Kid,' but Henry’s character development in this illustrated novel leaves Greg Heffley in the dust." ―School Library Journal, starred review * "Lai has a talent of not preaching to her readers, instead offering the reassurance that no one is alone in experiencing the painful awkwardness and occasionally harsh realities of growing up. . . This thrilling coming-of-age adventure is both quirky and sincere." ―Kirkus Reviews, starred review* "Comics-style artwork gives the book Wimpy Kid flair . . . readers will fall in love with Henry.
