Award-winning author and illustrator Charise Mericle Harper creates a laugh-out-loud picture book about making something out of nothing, a companion title to I Cannot Draw a Horse.

 

The Horse wants a bicycle.

A bicycle is hard to draw.

The Book cannot draw a bicycle.

But the Book CAN draw shapes.

 

Can the Horse and the Cat build a bicycle from shapes? Or will their dreams end in pieces?

Praise for I CANNOT DRAW A HORSE

 

“Creative an loaded with humor, this story will have kids giggling in seconds and trying their hand at drawing a horse—or at least a gumdrop.” —Booklist (starred review)

 

“Part Ed Emberley, with a dash of Pigeon, and entirely meta.” —Kirkus Reviews

 

“Harper’s illustrations make so much of so little, using a very limited palette and simple shapes, inviting readers into an artist’s notebook. With a little imagination and some paper, ‘nothing’ can become quite something. —Horn Book Magazine

 

“An easy-to-read text with exclamatory speech bubbles and pictorial antics will tickle funny bones in this off-kilter circular story.” —School Library Journal
