~ Oversize Hardcover (24 x 28.5cm)
For years, the king and queen have wished for a baby. Their wish was granted twice, when an engineer and a witch gave them a little wooden robot and an enchanted log princess. The children were inseparable, until the log princess is accidentally lost and it's up to her devoted brother to find her . . .
A new fairy-tale that manages to be both of the moment and utterly timeless, The Little Wooden Robot and the Log Princess is inspired by a bedtime story the author Tom Gauld made up for his own daughters.
"The brilliant pacing of the story, accomplished in both illustrations and text, make this a truly delightful tale that will be enjoyed by a wide ranging audience. With heroic beetles and delightful multiracial siblings, The Little Wooden Robot and the Log Princess is a magical offering." -- School Library Journal
