  • Baltazar and the Flying Pirates

    Oliver Chin, Justin Roth

    Hardcover (Immedium, Oct. 1, 2009)
    "I enjoyed the book immensely and found it utterly chARRRRRming! A dreamy holiday for a wee pirate with some colorful swashbuckling characters!"- Cap'n Slappy, co-founder of Talk Like a Pirate Day“An amusement park beset by pirates is a winning combination. Young pirate apprentices will enjoy this wild ride as Baltazar and his new friends search for treasure....younger pirates will also enjoy having the story read to them as they explore the intricate and wonderful artwork that fills each page.” - Pirates and PrivateersAges ago, Greybeard hid his treasure chest from fellow swashbucklers. Ever since, the beautiful Captain and her infamous Corsairs have searched for it, but their map missed the key piece. Tonight Redlocks recruits Greybeard’s descendant, young Baltazar, to help locate the long-lost riches.The boy leads the way, but now the bustling amusement park Treasure Island sits atop the buried booty. Join the crew of the flying Cutlass (a legendary cast that includes Hook, Long John Silver, and Black Bart) on a roller coaster to discover where “X” marks the spot. Can Baltazar help them strike pay dirt before their tickets expire?Fans of Pirateology, How I Became a Pirate, Pirates Don't Change Diapers will enjoy this ultimate joy ride."The best part? The head pirate, Captain Redlocks, is a redheaded woman. Oh yes she is. And she captains the Cutlass, the fastest ship in the skies. Because not only men can be all swarthy and adventurous and brandish swords and wear cool black eye patches....My redheaded daughter and I think this book should immediately be made into a movie, since the stunning illustrations look like animation and the theme park tie-in is just too good for Hollywood to pass up. When it comes out, don't say I didn't tell you so.” - Cool Mom Picks“Movies and television shows have altered what captivates and entertains our kids during story time these days. Although classic stories will always make a wonderful addition to any collection, children often look for more engaging visuals and storylines. In the new children’s picture book, Baltazar and the Flying Pirates, kids step right into a fun and beautifully illustrated adventure. Baltazar, a young boy with a very imaginative mind, has a dream about pirates and their treasure, bringing readers to an amusement park on a quest to find the pirates’ hidden treasure chest despite having an incomplete map and needing to overcome different obstacles. The story looks like an animated film, and the lively drawings prove perfect for inspiring little minds. Your child will not be disappointed by this story; in fact, don’t be surprised if you get requests to read it over and over again!” - Mom Central

    Attaboy

    Hardcover (Immedium, July 19, 2011)
    Enjoy 13 eye-popping poems about misbehaving monsters. Wacky comedy and amusing art appeal to fans of Dr. Seuss, Roald Dahl, and Shel Silverstein. With bold colors and twisted humor, Attaboy's zany rhymes introduce off-the-wall characters (a child who is a sock magnet), highlights the adorably peculiar (a hugging cactus), and juxtaposes the mundane (counting sheep to sleep) with the bizarre (zombie clowns). Plus there's the title story. Because of his beastly behavior, Gustav's parents hire an expert to determine if their son is truly a monster! How does he compare to a cornucopia of creatures who behave really badly? Enjoy hidden jokes and hilarious wordplay in this collection from an irreverent pop culture creator. With a theatrical eye for the absurd and unbridled paintbrush, Attaboy's funny anthology of illustrated poems will entertain everyone who is a kid at heart. Kids will like Attaboy’s designs, since his fantastic collectible toys and gallery paintings have attracted legions of devoted fans worldwide. You Might be a Monster brims with a visual cornucopia that will grab adult’s attention. These monsters may come from other dimensions, but will find a home squarely in the classrooms of teachers and librarians who appreciate strikingly original wit, imagination, and voice in an anthology format. “Attaboy's creepy cool monsters are an insane delight. They'll leap off the page, squirm through your optic nerve, and haunt your brain forever. And that's a good thing." - Mark Frauenfelder, founder of Boing Boing

    DGPH

    Hardcover (Immedium, Sept. 28, 2010)
    "Space Cadet 3X-245 (aka Topo) is a do-gooder cosmonaut who monitors the universe from the deck of his space station. When the sun mysteriously gets switched off, he hops into his spaceship to retrieve the Galactic Flame and relight the thing before all the planets freeze up. Striking heroic poses and pointing as gravely off into the starry cosmos as a bucktoothed space mole could, Topo flits around inventive page compositions and elaborate multilevel settings that kids handy at navigating video-game landscapes will love running their eyes over. Argentinean design firm DGPH doles out plenty of ludicrous fun as Topo laser-blasts a random monster blocking the entrance to the sun’s control center and finally has to rely on his timid helper bot to save the day. With discreet bits of text scattered about each page, this high-octane sf adventure is better suited for independent readers than for reading aloud, though adults will want to use their best digital monotones to voice Topo’s handy Computron." - ALA BooklistWhat would you do if the sun went out?
