Puddle
Autor Richard Jackson Ilustrat de Chris Raschkaen Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 mar 2019 – vârsta până la 8 ani
Puddle sits despondently in the playground, observing the world around her as she is dimpled by rain, splashed by shoes, piddled on by a poodle, bounced by a basketball, and stirred up by an inquisitive seagull. But when the sun makes a sudden appearance, Puddle meets an admiring new friend who lifts her spirits and makes her feel loved.
Richard Jackson’s playful text shines with rhythm, repetition, and surprising turns of phrase, and Caldecott Medalist Chris Raschka’s luminous paintings achieve the impossible—oh, sweet Puddle!
A memorable story of friendship, love, and changing your point of view.

Recenzii
“Complex and thoughtful. . . .Masterful watercolor and gouache illustrations. . .are enhanced by an effective book design and creative use of fonts. Vibrant, unusual, and beautiful, this deep Puddle ‘is, indeed, a sight to see.’” — ALA Booklist (starred review)
“A self-conscious puddle. . .finds purpose as she interacts with her environment and reflects the world’s beauty while finding her own. . . .Expressionistic paintings, done in watercolor with gouache, play like music. . . .Luminous and lovely, with colors to fill the soul.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“In quirky verse with splashes of wordplay, Jackson gives voice to the emotional life of a sensitive puddle. . . .Raschka paints life at puddle level, observing its surface splashed by raindrops, disturbed by pedestrians, and illuminated by what’s above it. . . .Jackson finds a new way to say that anxiety isn’t fixed by worrying; instead, sometimes it changes into joy all on its own.” — Publishers Weekly
“The playfully lyrical text is enjoyably quirky with its hints of rhyme and musical repetitions. . . .Raschka’s watercolor and gouache art suffuses the pages with soft, blurred color that contrasts with the more solid figures of animals and kids.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
“Jackson’s lively and poetic text and Raschka’s humor-filled paintings help children grasp the idea of empathy and perspective: even a puddle can have its own point of view.” — The Horn Book
“Raschka’s signature nearly abstract gouache and watercolor illustrations transition from gray-blue to a slowly brightening wash of colors as the puddle transforms from despondent to elated, matching the tone of Jackson’s jaunty rhyming text. A winsome and uplifting tale of an unusual protagonist.” — School Library Journal

Notă biografică
Richard Jackson is an editor and author. He says: ?Akaraka is a word in the Igbo language; a meaningful word to the Igbo-speaking people of southwestern Nigeria. It refers to marks on a person's hand that spell out that person's fate or destiny. At the time she used it, in 1997, my granddaughter, Kelsey Albert, then three years old, couldn't have realized this. She liked the sound, as do I for this story, in which my role is played by her father. I am now a writer, not a raker. I've published seven books for young people, among them This Beautiful Day, illustrated by Suzy Lee, and In Plain Sight, which was illustrated by Jerry Pinkney and awarded a Coretta Scott King Honor for illustration.?
