Ghost Knigi

This adorable, limited-edition children’s book written and illustrated by the editor and publisher of the super-cool artist book/zine publisher, Nieves, follows a young ghost named Knigi on his quest to learn to read. Readers of this ideal gift book will not be able to decide which is more the story--of the ghost’s frustrations when his first book will not reveal its secrets, and later his wonder when “A miraculous explosion of colors and shapes leapt out from the pages!”; or Sommerhalder’s spot-on illustrations, which are clear, humorous and true in the manner of a modern-day Leo Lionni or Bruno Munari.
