Author and illustrator Jon Klassen recently announced that his new book The Skull will be available from Candlewick Press in July, 2023. A whopping 115 pages, and based on a folktale Klassen read in a library before an event in Alaska (a great story in itself!), it tells the tale of a girl who runs away from home and befriends a talking skull she finds alone in a house in the woods. It is as spooky and macabre as it sounds, and totally worth the wait!
Jon Klassen’s latest book with Mac Barnett, The Three Billy Goats Gruff, was published this month.
