Antoinette Portis lives in California. She made her picture-book debut with Not A Box, winner of an ALA Seuss Geisel Honor, a New York Times Ten Best Illustrated Books of the Year and NYT bestseller. In the UK Antoinette has won the English Association Award, been long listed for the UKLA Award, and nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal. Her books are highly valued by teachers and librarians.
‘Highly recommended, this uniquely bold alien and space-themed picture book is perfect for imaginative 4+ year olds.' School Reading List ‘Budding galactic explorers will love this fresh and playful book which is packed with Portis’s bright lines and bold colours, all paired perfectly with humour that also offers a subtle message about the concepts of ‘strangeness’ and acceptance. Whether for bedtime or circle time, this is a portal you’ll want to open!’ Lancashire Evening Post
