"This visually stunning picturebook tells a culturally important real story in a highly stimulating manner. This will generate lots of discussion about difference and belonging"
Longlisted for the Kate Greenaway Medal 2014
Inspired by the life of Jemmy Button – a native of Tierra del Fuego who was brought to England in the mid-1800s to be 'educated' and 'civilised' by Captain Robert FitzRoy – this book illustrates Jemmy's bizarre encounters and his return back home. Collaborating across continents, without a common language, Valerio's precision and Jennifer's primitive style have resulted in a story unlike any other.
