Reviews
"A stellar biography, as creepy and fun as its subject." -- Kirkus , STARRED review "With straightforward, rhythmic prose and deliciously atmospheric illustrations....This playful picture book biography is a wonderful and unique introduction to Edward Gorey's life and work." -- School Library Journal, STARRED review "Readers will get a good sense of this curious, imaginative man, as well as quiet affirmation that being different is interesting--and interesting stories are the very best kind." -- Booklist "[Bristol duplicates] Gorey's style throughout with remarkable conviction, capturing his long, rail-like human figures, their haunted expressions, and their elegant clothing." -- Publishers Weekly "How odd and how lovely: a picture book biography about an author who is unlikely to turn up in the school curriculum.... Bristol complements the mood with deep earthtoned illustrations that pay tribute to Gorey's own work and to writers and artists he influenced." -- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, "Chloe Bristol's wonderful autumn-hued pictures evoke Gorey's figures--the elongated bodies, the hollow, exhausted eyes--in this buoyant biography for children." -- Wall Street Journal "A stellar biography, as creepy and fun as its subject." -- Kirkus , STARRED review "With straightforward, rhythmic prose and deliciously atmospheric illustrations....This playful picture book biography is a wonderful and unique introduction to Edward Gorey's life and work." -- School Library Journal, STARRED review "Readers will get a good sense of this curious, imaginative man, as well as quiet affirmation that being different is interesting--and interesting stories are the very best kind." -- Booklist "[Bristol duplicates] Gorey's style throughout with remarkable conviction, capturing his long, rail-like human figures, their haunted expressions, and their elegant clothing." -- Publishers Weekly "How odd and how lovely: a picture book biography about an author who is unlikely to turn up in the school curriculum....

Synopsis
A beautifully illustrated and lyrical picture-book biography of eccentric and beloved writer and artist Edward Gorey., A beautifully illustrated and lyrical picture-book biography of eccentric and beloved writer and artist Edward Gorey In this lyrical biography of one of literature's most creepily creative authors and illustrators, kids will learn about the inspiration behind a generation of creators, from Lemony Snicket to Tim Burton. Known for, among other things, wearing a large fur coat wherever he went, storyteller Edward Gorey was respected for both his brilliance and his eccentricity. As a child, he taught himself to read and skipped several grades before landing at Harvard (after a brief stint in the army). Then he built a name for himself as a popular book illustrator. After that, he went on to publish well over one hundred of his own books, stories that mingled sweetness and innocence, danger and darkness, all mixed with his own brand of silliness. Illustrated with Gorey-like humor and inspiration by Chloe Bristol, this stunning picture book biography about this beloved creator is the first for children.
