An extract from 10 Little Insects

Davide Cali is all over the August edition of the Children’s Book Council’s official journal, Reading Time.

There’s a profile of him, which looks at some of the influences on his work for kids, plus another very enthusiastic review of Cali’s and Vincent Pianina’s latest book, 10 Little Insects. Here’s a snippet of the review:

Cali adopts the classic detective novel structure, introducing the characters through a prologue, and rounding off with a very funny denouement when all is explained, still leaving room for a final surprise … Attractive design within the comic-book tradition, sharp drawing, fresh clear colours, a quirky cover and exceptionally beautiful endpapers make up an appealing presentation. High recommended.
