About the Author:
Mike Curato is the author and illustrator of a number of picture books, including Little Elliot, Big City, Little Elliot, Big Family, and Little Elliot, Big Fun. You can find him on any given day walking around the city eating a cupcake (or thinking about it).
Review:
“Little Elliot, with his upswept trunk and his angel-wing ears, is a cuddly-looking elephant with pastel polka dots all over his body, all the more amusingly incongruous living in a 1930s-esque version of New York City . . . Children will relate to Elliot's experiences.” ―The Horn Book
* “Curato, a debut author and illustrator, tucks several gentle messages into one simple story that's perfect for the age group. It is, however, his almost cinematic artwork that's the real showstopper.” ―Booklist, starred review
“A tiny, spotted elephant tackles the challenges of city life . . . The simple story is told in 17 short sentences that allow Curato's magnificent 1940s-style illustrations to carry the tale.” ―School Library Journal
* “He's a terrific emerging talent, with gorgeously rendered images that bring to mind the moodiness of Chris Van Allsburg and the sweetness of William Joyce.” ―Publisher's Weekly, starred review
