The Clouds Above by Jordan Crane

The Clouds Above by Jordan Crane

The Clouds Above is a rip-roaring adventure about a kid named Simon, who skips school one day with his cat, Jack. They climb a magic staircase leading skyward, encounter a sad cloud named Perch and get mixed up in a conflict involving him, some nasty storm clouds and an irritable flock of birds. Will they make back home safely in time for school tomorrow? This brilliant, full-color graphic novel doubles as a wondrous children's book, recalling such classics asWhere the Wild Things Are, The Wizard of Oz and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, with its depiction of a fantastic world that lurks just around the corner from reality and that only children know exists.

Around the Fourth of July, Jordan Crane was hiking in the woods with his wife, Rebecca, when she exclaimed, Interdependence Day! Her idea was for a holiday like Independence Day, with parades and fireworks, a way to celebrate all the ways we are connected to one another and to the planet. Dazzled by the thought, Jordan decided to make a comic about it. He worked for many months trying to get it right. Rebecca told him, It's not a new idea. It's something that people know. Just be clear, and draw it as you see it. So he drew it all over again, and at last it was done--the book you now hold in your hands.
