What's Before & After About

Publisher Summary

An enticing collection of before-and-after scenarios, created by master artist and acclaimed author of This Is Not A BookGraphic artist Jean Jullien insightfully and comically depicts a set of clever and surprising before-and-after two-frame narratives, each progressed by a page turn. From pale skin to sunburned skin, dirty to clean, long hair to short hair (to long again), Jullien masterfully builds anticipation and a satisfying resolution with each pairing. Striking the perfect balance of predictability and unexpectedness, this book will leave readers in wonder as they flip back and forth. Ages 2-4
