book introduction
New York Times bestselling author Mac Barnett and
Caldecott Honor Award-winning author Sean Harris met.
Graphic Noble full of quirky yet warm and witty humor!
Three ordinary heroes who stepped forward for the terrible things that happened in heaven,
An extraordinary adventure story of a space cat, a toenail clipper, and a moon queen!
The moon is in trouble.There was a desperate crisis in which someone dug up the moon.Earth was in chaos when it learned about this through a super telescope that was observing the moon.I had to go to the moon right away and find a hero to solve this.Writer Mac Barnett and painter Sean Harris created a new hero.We implanted microchips in the brain, and we saw a space cat that was never seen in space in a super-cybernetic spacesuit.
Author Mac Barnett, who won both the Boston Globe Honbuk Award and the Caldecott Honor Award for his picture book "Annabelle and the Curious Wool," and the picture book "Did you see the flowers?"Sean Harris, the winner of the Caldecott Honor Award for 로, is back with a graphic novel full of wacky, funny and warm humor.Two writers, who are also childhood friends, work hand in hand to tell a story full of pleasant adventures.
A cat that went into space at the command of a general.Next to this cat was a stowaway robot called "Rose 4000," which secretly climbed into the spacecraft.The Rose 4000 was originally made of a toenail clipper robot, but while thinking about the meaning of his existence, he secretly climbed on a rocket to see if he could find a purpose for life in the vast universe.So the space cat and the toenail clipper meet the moon's queen after getting off the moon.Becoming a community of fate, the three go on a long journey to drive out the existence of moon-eating rats on the other side of the moon.And in the process, I meet people with strong personalities who live on the moon.The process of solving the difficulties we meet everywhere one by one is touching.It depicts the process of overcoming hardships one by one and becoming a solid hero.
Oh, but why is pizza in the title?The food that the space cat wanted to eat the most was pizza, but it couldn't keep eating.Whether or not we can eat pizza before we finish this enormous mission is also the fun point of watching this graphic novel.
Create a story for children who can't run around during the pandemic.
Special Graphic Noble Started on Mac Barnet's Book Club Show and Live Cartoon!
In the meantime, more than 1 million picture books and fairy tales written by McBarnett for children have been sold in the United States and 4 million worldwide, and have been translated into more than 30 languages.His new book, "The First Cat to Space, Taste Pizza," also a New York Times best-selling author, began on a rather special occasion.
McBarnett organized "Mac Barnett's Book Club Show" for children who are stuck inside their homes after the lockdown was imposed through the COVID-19 pandemic.I read picture books almost every day through live broadcasts on social media, communicating with children not only in the U.S. but also the world.The author, who thought about their relationship with children who had been ordered to close schools and lost their daily lives, says he knew that the most important thing in life had disappeared.So, in addition to the reading, McBarnett made a cartoon with Sean Harris every Saturday and played it in the form of a live show.It was a live show that even children in the South Pole went wild.The live show was the motif of the graphic novel, "The first cat to go into space, tasting pizza."It's going to be up to the third volume.

Graphic Noble Shines the Strengths of Sean Harris, Picture Book Writer
Sean Harris, who worked mainly on picture books, challenged the graphic novel this time.It is a work that highlights the worldview set for the long journey of cats and friends who flew into space and their unique characters.As a writer who mainly worked on picture books, the graphic novel's paintings are expressed in great detail.In addition to the three main characters, there are three characters, King Rat, the underworld caterpillar philosopher Dennis, a giant with a warm heart living in an icy land, a whale living in Harmony and a pirate captain who loots other people's ships.I created an interesting character by capturing the strengths of characters that are not simple.The worldview of the painting, which embodies the fun of the narrative as it is, further emphasizes the merits of this book.
American best-selling author Mac Barnett, why do you come to Korea's Dreamlet Bookstore?
McBarnett also serves on the 826 LA Board of Directors, a nonprofit writing and teacher training center.It's an organization that teaches children to write.McBarnett, who always conducted various collaborations with small neighborhood bookstores in the U.S., comes to Korea at the invitation of the Museum of Modern Children's Book Art in Pangyo.One of them, on June 20, I will visit Kkumteul Bookstore, a small bookstore in Gimpo.This is because the translator of this book is Lee Sook-hee, CEO of Ggumteul Bookstore.
In 2022, "The first cat to go to space, tasting pizza" came out in the U.S., and the author contacted the Dream Bookstore directly to collaborate.Kkumtle Bookstore invited Mac Barnett and Sean Harris to Zoom to meet with about 300 Korean readers.In addition to conducting a book talk with the application, he also made and sold T-shirt goods of Dreamlet Bookstore after several discussions with the writers.Due to that connection, McBarnett said he wanted to go to the Kkumtle Bookstore first when he came to Korea, and finally visited the Kkumtle Bookstore on June 20, 2023.
