The Right One for Roderic

Praise

A nonconformist ghost with a flair for fashion stars in this picture book by Noy…Primary and secondary colors and curvy, shapely graphics (occasionally accompanied by labels—“slime,” “a bone”) offer gentle energy to each page. A spirited spin on embracing difference.
—Publishers Weekly

The simple digital illustrations effectively use color and composition to set the endearing protagonist against unwelcoming crowds, including the city’s multihued sea of people, and to highlight his mostly lonesome journey. Though the message is nothing new, the moments of humor and emotional resonance in this brave little ghost’s story make this one worth a read.
