Triangle
Multi-award-winning, bestselling duo Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen conspire again on a slyly funny tale about some very sneaky shapes.
“Picture book lovers will find much to like in Triangle” Guardian
From the award-winning team behind Sam and Dave Dig a Hole, and illustrated by Jon Klassen, the Kate Greenaway-winning creator of This Is Not My Hat and I Want My Hat Back, comes the first tale in an exciting new trilogy. Meet Triangle. He is going to play a sneaky trick on his friend, Square. Or so Triangle thinks... Visually stunning and full of wry humour, here is a perfectly-paced treat that flips the traditional concept book, and approaches it from a whole new angle.
Creators
Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen have made three books together: Sam and Dave Dig a Hole, which won a Caldecott Honor and an E.B. White Read Aloud Award; Extra Yarn, which won a Caldecott Honor, an E.B. White Read Aloud Award and a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award; and The Wolf, the Duck and the Mouse. They both live in California, USA, but in different cities.
Reviews
“Klassen’s deadpan humour has won him millions of fans, including me, and this collaboration with Barnett brings the best out of both, as it did in their award-winning Sam and Dave Dig a Hole. […] How Klassen manages to convey the two characters’ personalities through no more than a pair of eyes and a limited colour palette defies explanation.”
