Starred Review:

Nop

Fed up with not being picked, a worn plush bear chooses discovery and adventure in this stunning picture book about finding your own way in the world—even if you have to make it up. Toys come and go from Oddmint’s Dumporeum, but not Nop. He decides to change his fate; he stitches a patchwork balloon of scraps and sets sail through the sky before landing in the arms of a friend. Jewel-toned watercolor illustrations will ensnare the imagination in this cozy tale.
