With her adored polka-dot blankie in hand, Kiki can do and be anything she wants. In a flash, it transforms her into a cowgirl, a pirate, even a superhero with a cape! So when the blankie blows away, Kiki will do anything to get it back…even face a very scary crocodile. Janie Bynum’s irresistible heroine proves that love makes us brave and strong—even when we don’t have our special blanket to protect us!
Janie Bynum’s first children’s book was Altoona Baboona (Harcourt Children’s Books, 1999), and since then, she has written and illustrated several more, including the delightful Otis (Harcourt Children’s Books, 2000), a Junior Library Guild Selection. In addition to her work in children’s literature, Ms. Bynum owns and operates a corporate graphic design studio. Visit Janie Bynum online at www.janiebynum.com.
For ALTOONA BABOONA:“As fresh as a summer breeze…Bynum's book is a surefire crowd pleaser."—Parents’ Choice For OTIS: “...the exacting, childlike tone hits the mark, and the watercolor cartoons are uniformly expressive.”—Publishers Weekly For NUTMEG & BARLEY (Candlewick Press, 2006)“…charming watercolor-and-pastel illustrations of the two creatures going about their daily routines portray each personality beautifully….”—School Library Review
