I’m so excited to share the first glimpse of Sauerkraut with you!
Isn’t that cover amazing?!? You might recognize artist Paul Davey‘s work from comics, but I think this is his first book for kids. I can’t wait to see the rest of his illustrations for Sauerkraut!
Sauerkraut will be coming to bookstores across the country this fall, on September 10th, 2019. I can’t wait to hear what you think of HD, a young maker, who wants to build his own computer and show everyone what he can do. Trouble is, he meets the ghost of his great-great-grandmother, who needs his help with a different project…
Like the Unusual Chickens books, this is a funny novel for readers ages 8-12 (or anyone who loves middle grade novels!) about a kid with stuff to do, and how his family and community help out (and sometimes get in the way.) It’s not written in letters — but it does have some lists and plans… It doesn’t have chickens — but it does have two goats names Rodgers and Hammerstein… And readers can see what happens in illustrations throughout by Paul Davey.
