Gnu and Shrew
Autor Danny Schnitzlein Ilustrat de Anca Sanduen Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 oct 2020 – vârsta până la 8 ani
"A refreshing demonstration of different approaches and a friendship that transcends those contrasts." --Booklist
When Gnu says that there's a cave filled with diamonds across the river, Shrew is intrigued. But Gnu seems to be all talk, fantasizing about riches yet dismissing all of Shrew's suggestions. As Gnu dreams his days away, tossing out one big idea after another, Shrew spends his nights trying to make those dreams a reality. Will Gnu's big ideas ever be able to mesh with Shrew's hard work to make something remarkable happen?
Author Danny Schnitzlein uses deadpan storytelling to put an entertaining spin on "The Ant and the Grasshopper" that values the roles of both dreamers and doers. Anca Sandu's illustrations, rendered in pencil and colored digitally, add to the humor and whimsy. eBook available.

Anca Sandu was born in the flatlands of eastern Romania. Her grandma declared her a "drawer" of perfect circles at age two. Heeding the call to be the artist of the family, she studied children's illustration at Anglia Ruskin University, in Cambridge, England, and discovered that her passion for drawing helped her overcome her introversion. She now enjoys engaging most humans nearly as much as drawing them.

Anca lives in Beaverton, Oregon, along with her husband and their ever-expanding book collection.
