Can a young boy find fire for his family-andbring it safely home? An exciting, nearly wordless picture book adventure as visually compelling as a Pixar short. After a hard rain douses the family fire, a brave young boy sets out to search for more fire to bring home before the cold season sets in. Along the way, he' ll face many challenges, from perilous mountains to fearsome predators to raging rivers, and find something wholly unexpected: a friend. In his picture book debut, artist Logan S. Kline crafts a dramatic tale inspired by prehistoric times and told almost entirely through stunningly detailed illustrations. "Finding Fire started with the sketch of a small boy holding a torch and grew from there," he says. "A lot of research went into creating the art for this book, yet the look of the boy changed very little over time as he was inspired by my children, from my younger son' s wiry frame to my elder son' s wild hair that goes in a million different directions. " This gorgeous adventure story just begs to be visited again and again, with each perusal promising new discoveries.
Comics-style panels pull the reader into close connection with the determined protagonist, while bravura cinematic spreads celebrate ingenuity, kindness, and bravery against the elements and great odds. Readers will pore over these vividly imagined pages en route to its cozy, brightly lit end. -Publishers Weekly (starred review) Simple but heartwarming. . . . A prehistoric premise best enjoyed cozied up next to a warm, safe fireplace. -Kirkus Reviews
Logan S. Kline is an artist whose work has appeared in several magazines, including Highlights, Ladybug,and Cricket. He is also a high school art teacher. Logan S. Kline lives in upstate New York with his family.
