Woof: A Love Story
By Sarah Weeks - Illustrated by Holly Berry

To be released November 24, 2009

Early Recognition
-Selected for the 2009 "Original Art: The Fine Art of Children's Book Illustration" exhibit presented by the Society of Illustrators

Booklist writes:
"...In fact, everything about Berry's wildly colored and wholly unpredictable collage work has a passionate pop-art zeal. During a conciliatory digging session the dog unearths a different kind of bone--a trombone--which he then plays to express his true feelings. Once again, the universal language of music (and love) trumps hissing and barking."

Awards
-2008 Charlotte Zolotow Honor Book

Book Description
One wintry morning, Mama tells Rosy a wondrous story about her own mama, Grandma Beatrice, who could bring spring to cold, cold Minsk by making magic in the kitchen. Together, mother and daughter mix batter and sing a song. Then the batter goes into the pan—pour, swirl, swizzle, FLIP! Soon Papa comes in from the cold and the family shares a special treat. (Hint: A recipe for blintzes is included!) In this delightfully cozy tale, Holly Berry’s stunning illustrations evoke charming folk traditions and the warm magic made in Mama’s kitchen.
