TWO STARRED REVIEWS! • Join best friends Henri and Miko for fall festivities in the wooded village of Bosk Olivette in an enchanting picture book series from New York Times–bestselling illustrator Rebecca Green. This beautiful gift book for fans of Beatrix Potter, Brambly Hedge and Calico Critters includes a recipe, activities, a cross-section gatefold and more!
Beyond the Phelps County Orchard, in a stretch of woods known as Bosk Olivette, at the bottom of a lone black maple, you'll discover a cider press. But not just any cider press . . . welcome to the home of Henri and Miko!
Henri the mouse and Miko the bee adore autumn. From the glow of the harvest moon to cinnamon donuts to ruby red leaves, there is so much to celebrate. And celebrate they do. They might even share a scare or two!
The pair spend their days building leaf forts and reading spooky stories, but Henri and Miko never forget to delight in their favorite time of all: time with friends. Together, it surely will be an autumn to remember.
A delightfully cozy and tenderhearted series of little adventures for little readers — and for big readers who love tiny pleasures!
"[C]ount this book among the seasonal gems worth revisiting and savoring like scones and tea with an old friend. A beguiling ode to autumn; the other three seasons must be bursting with jealousy to go next." —STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus Reviews
"To step into Green’s whimsically detailed world of Bosk Olivette is akin to entering a wood populated by Calico Critters figurines — which is to say, it will knock your coziest socks off. . . . a leaf-crackling, apple-munching ode to autumn." —STARRED REVIEW, Booklist "The artwork’s intricacy brightens these slow–paced friendship tales." —Publishers Weekly
Rebecca Green is the illustrator of Madame Saqui: Revolutionary Rope Dancer and How to Make Friends with a Ghost, which she also wrote. Booklist called the latter "a heartfelt lesson in kindness and caring." Most recently, she illustrated Kafka and the Doll, which received two starred reviews. In addition to working as an illustrator for children's books, magazines, and galleries, she also helped run The Warren, a studio in Nashville that houses five working artists and hosts a variety of community events. Some of her clients include HarperCollins, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, the Wall Street Journal, and Flow magazine. Visit her at myblankpaper.com.
