Description
"In this Caldecott Medal winner, Mosquito tells a story that causes a jungle disaster. ""Elegance has become the Dillons' hallmark . . . An impressive showpiece."-Booklist, starred review." Set in the African jungle, a mosquito whispers a lie into an iguana's ear. The iguana, not wanting to listen, plugs his ears with sticks. With his ears plugged, he is unable to hear the python, causing the python to react. An unfortunate chain of events involving several other jungle animals occur as a result. Leo & Diane Dillon are two of the most acclaimed illustrators of our time. They collaborated for more than five decades. Their long list of awards includes two Caldecott Medals, the NAACP Image Award, five Coretta Scott King Awards and Honors, four Boston Globe-Horn Book Awards, and induction into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. Leo and Diane created award-winning picture books, book covers, magazines, and other art until Leo's death in 2012. Love and the Rocking Chair is their final collaboration. Diane Dillon lives in Brooklyn, New York.
