Weslandia by Paul Fleischman

Weslandia by Paul Fleischman

"This fantastical picture book, like its hero, is bursting at the seams with creativity. . . . a vigorous shot in the arm to nonconformists everywhere" -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Enter the witty, intriguing world of Weslandia! Now that school is over, Wesley needs a summer project. He's learned that each civilization needs a staple food crop, so he decides to sow a garden and start his own -- civilization, that is. He turns over a plot of earth, and plants begin to grow. They soon tower above him and bear a curious-looking fruit. As Wesley experiments, he finds that the plant will provide food, clothing, shelter, and even recreation. It isn't long before his neighbors and classmates develop more than an idle curiosity about Wesley -- and exactly how he is spending his summer vacation.

For Joyful Noise, Paul Fleischman received a Newbery Medal, and for Graven Pictures, he received a Newbery Honor. He's also the author of the middle-grade novels Bull Run and Seedfolks, as well as the young adult novel The Mind's Eye. In northern California, he lives with his wife.
