The Important Thing about Margaret Wise Brown by Mac Barnett

funny informative lighthearted relaxing sad medium-paced

5.0

This book is incredible. The only fault I can find is that the actual biographical information on Brown is very sparse. But the text is constructed in such a playful and thoughtful way, that I barely noticed. Barnett is not afraid of poking a little fun as himself, and I love it! The illustrations are stunning, soft and beautiful! There are some lovely moments of metafiction throughout.
