{"product_id":"the-nightingale-that-never-sang-juliana-hyrri-9781943888269","title":"The Nightingale That Never Sang","description":"For children, the world is possibility. But grown-ups would do well to remember that possibility extends to places full of light \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e steeped in darkness, with plenty of other spaces in between. Children are human after all, and as such, they are sometimes innocent, sometimes cruel, and frequently impossible for others to truly understand. \u003cbr\u003e In her debut graphic novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Nightingale That Never Sang\u003c\/i\u003e, Juliana Hyrri gives us stories that are stolen from real life, seen through a child's eyes--and do not look away when it comes to the scary parts. If it can happen out there, it can happen within these pages, too. \u003cbr\u003e Her visual style comprises the smudged, scribbled, and smooth lines one might expect from a (very) young artist, but also pulsing, boundless backgrounds painted with near-manic energy. If there is any true purity to be found here, it's only in the reflection of how a child feels, before those feelings are tempered with adult ideas of what ought to be revealed in polite conversation. \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eNightingale\u003c\/i\u003e takes us along for the ride as children discover and dream their world, through glimpses of tadpoles and tent forts, field trips and forest ventures, stray cats and sleepovers. On the surface, these are scenes anyone might recognize from their own childhood, but it's really a book filled with the blank spaces that grown-ups won't talk about, scribbled over with childhood logic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Juliana Hyrri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1943888264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943888269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Featherproof Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.70w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2021 pg. 46","brand":"Juliana Hyrri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44173038420223,"sku":"9781943888269","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf25b3bf-2e42-45a6-a5f1-721541516c9e.jpg?v=1689790709","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-nightingale-that-never-sang-juliana-hyrri-9781943888269","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
