Odd Dog

Claudia Boldt lebt und arbeitet in London, wo sie an der Kingston University Illustration studierte. 2011 wurde sie von Booktrust zu einem der Ten Best New Illustrators gewählt.

"There's a lot to enjoy in Odd Dog: the offbeat humour (what? a dog that doesn't like bones?), the stylish, characterful illustrations, the reassuring reminder that the world is actually a good place, full of good people" -- Zoe Toft Playing By the Book 20120507 "It's a simple but lovely story ... It's also a lovely lesson on how to be a good friend, different people liking different things, not always seeing the worst in people and giving people the benefit of the doubt" -- Cheryl Pasquier Madhouse Family Reviews 20120512 "With minimalist art, muted colors, engaging characters and a dynamic and varied layout of art and text, Odd Dog presents a ridiculous story that will appeal to dog lovers everywhere - as well as fans of subversive art in the style of Jon Klassen" -- Anita Silvey The New York Times 20120511 "This simple story about sharing and friendship is transformed by Claudia Boldt's light-hearted, witty illustrations which bring her quirky characters to life. Stylishly designed spreads in a palette of ice-cream colours convey a nostalgic, retro feel, but ultimately it is Boldt's surreal sense of humour which will make this book irresistible to young readers" Booktrust
