Dan Santat to Work On Four New Children’s Books Projects
“The first, After the Fall, follows the aftermath of Humpty Dumpty’s accident. The second, Dude, written by Aaron Reynolds, is a single-word picture book about a surfing platypus and beaver. The third is You Bad Son, a YA graphic novel based on Santat’s experience growing up as an only child in a Thai-American family, which centers on his decision to go to art school over pursuing a career in medicine, and what his family faced when his mother was diagnosed with cancer. And the fourth is a yet-to-be-titled second picture book, to be written and illustrated by Santat.” (Publishers Weekly)
