Gris Grimly

Book DescriptionWhat do an optimistic lad named Jordan Ray, a down-and-out peasant, a mad hare, a grumpy old troll, an oyster, a knight, a water nymph, a griffin and an eclectic collection of supporting characters have in common? Why, a muddy spud, of course. Gris Grimly has crafted a story rooted in his admiration of Lewis Carroll, L. Frank Baum, and Dr. Seuss. In over 40 pieces of richly-detailed artwork influenced by Arthur Rackham and Edward Gorey, this is an uncommonly lyrical mix of strong story, compelling characters and awe-inspiring art.
