Synopsis

Young Otis is forced to question his origin and allegiances, given that his mom, a yellow chicken, is part of the Nuh-Uhs, and his dad, a blue flower, stems from the Yes-Chums. Struggling to find answers, Otis runs away, only to encounter more colors (and cultures) than he could ever imagine, including a giant portrait full of possibilities.

Otis Grows is a picture book, rooted in the challenges of family conflict, but appealing to any child--or adult--who knows that growing up can be tough, that there is "the odor of growing older," but that ultimately, love and wonder will win.

À propos de l?auteur

Kathryn holds a B.A. from Penn State University, an M.F.A. from Emerson College, and an Ed.M. from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. She wrote the first draft of Otis Grows in 2010, but did not begin seriously considering children's literature until 2015. Perhaps having kids of her own had a stake in that: her daughter Lucille is three, and her son Julian is 9 months old. Kathryn is from York, Pennsylvania and lives in Asheville, North Carolina.
