WHEN I WAKE UP by Seth Fishman and Jessixa Bagley
Booklist awarded WHEN I WAKE UP, the forthcoming picture book by Seth Fishman and illustrator Jessixa Bagley, a starred-review. “Charming, richly detailed watercolor-and-pencil illustrations of the child’s surroundings and experiences judiciously employ color and perspective in this cleverly told story,” writes the reviewer. “This artful, engaging portrayal of a child’s imagination and view of their world, as well as the reassurances and comfort of family and home, is likely to strike a chord with kids and their adults.” The book also received a glowing review from Publishers Weekly: “[R]eaders should come away admiring their mischievousness, creativity, independence, and curiosity.” Greenwillow Books will publish the book on December 14, 2021.
