Unwrapping Some Illustrations
The Book
This imaginative creative book is about two friends teaming up to make a wish come true. Willy wants with all his heart to be the first piggy to travel into outerspace. When he discusses it with his BFF Walter it seems it's a wish that can never become a reality. Really? Where there's a will... there's a way and the duo put their heads together to build their very own rocket ship to launch and enjoy an unforgettable adventure in space ( conjured up in their minds ) that they both can share!
The illustrations are fantastic! The characters are adorable and the colour pallet is bright and engaging. The story includes the themes of friendship, working together and problem solving. It encourages kids to follow their dreams whether they can become a reality or can be a made-up simulation in their minds.
I highly recommend this book. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

Meet the Author
Bonnie Grubman, author of children’s picture books, lives in Syosset, New York. This is what she says about herself:
‘Once upon a time I lived in a wonderful little apartment with my mom and dad, brother and sister, pet turtles, and a parakeet. On hot summer nights, I would cool off on the fire escape with a stack of books and a flashlight. I loved reading.
I went to Nursing School, became a Mommy, and traded my Nurse’s hat for a classroom full of picture books and inspiring young children who found joy and curiosity in everything they saw. Because of the kids and for the kids I’ve been writing ever since. I hope to continue to foster the love of reading and preserve the magic of childhood.’
