The reason why the Chinese version made fans wait for 2 years is that it carefully polishes every process, double-seals inside and outside the hardcover, thickens the gray board, and selects special art paper for the text...... Strive to perfectly restore the healing power of this "work of art"!
In addition to the Caldecott Gold Medal, Doug Salati has also won more than a dozen awards, including the Jiz Children's Literature Award for Illustrator, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a walking children's book medal list!
