Eerdmans Books for Young Readers, an imprint of Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co.
for Garmann's Summer, written and illustrated by Stian Hole, translated from the Norwegian by Don Bartlett.
About
Hole introduces us to six-year-old Garmann during his last summer before starting school. The humorous and poetic text, combined with surreal and multi-layered artwork, creates a truly unique and complex look at the universality of fear and uncertainty.
“This is a book rich with literary and visual complexity, but it will be Garmann who readers remember,” said Imdieke.
