If youre not already aware of their work, we suggest you rectify that immediately. Filled with original storylines, uncomplicated but meaningful text, a discernible humour and instantly recognisable artwork, theres everything to appreciate about their work.[…] A story with a perfectly simple premise executed to perfection in the only way Barnett and Klassen know how." * Picture Books Blogger *"Klassens restrained earthy palette and minimalist scenes (those eloquent eyes again), are in perfect harmony with Barnetts even sparer, deadpan text allowing readers to step into the narrative landscape and fill for themselves, the host of gaps left by the books genius creators. Prankish play or something more sinister? I come down on the side of the former. This book is the first of a planned trilogy from this formidable team: I eagerly anticipate the next one … and the next." * Red Reading Hub *"Mac Barnetts wily story and Jon Klassens eyes-tell-all illustrations make Triangle a really fun read-aloud for preschoolers, early elementary kids, and their adults." * Boing Boing *"The images are deceptively simple; the characters inhabit a world of triangles, squares and the "shapes with no names". Each is rendered beautifully. As with Klassens solo work, the eyes reveal everything about the characters, bring two basic shapes-on-legs to life." * Irish Times Weekend *"Brilliant and hilarious, award-winning Jon Klassen and Mac Barnetts Triangle is the gem of a book." * Julia Eccleshare LoveReading, Book of the Month * Details ISBN1406378364 Author Jon Klassen Pages 48 Publisher Walker Books Ltd Year 2018 Illustrator Jon Klassen ISBN-10 1406378364 ISBN-13 9781406378368 Format Paperback Publication Date 2018-03-01 Imprint Walker Books Ltd Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom Audience Age 3-7 Media Book Language English UK Release Date 2018-03-01 AU Release Date 2018-03-01 NZ Release Date 2018-03-01 Audience Children / Juvenile We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
