Praise for Beard Boy "In this well-paced debut, Flannery keeps the
tone light-hearted, with Steve Weinberg's freewheeling
illustrations -- his thick, loose lines have just the right touch
of kid-gone-to-town-with-a-crayon -- adding wonderfully to the
festive, affectionate mood."--The New York Times
"Comically charming, this one-of-a-kind story celebrates the unique
bond that connects father, son, and facial hair. A refreshing cut
for young readers."--Kirkus Reviews
"Flannery debuts with a sweetly goofy story about a young family
that includes an emotive boy with a beard fixation...Weinberg (Rex
Finds an Egg! Egg! Egg!) works in a playfully disarrayed style,
using loose squiggle to outline his characters in bright purple,
bringing a jittery energy to the pages."--Publishers Weekly
"Tailor-made for children with a yen to be just like their parental
units, this is an inclusive and funny urban alternative to Frank
Asch's classic Just Like Daddy."--Booklist "A befitting tale for
Father's Day and a welcome addition to any collection needing
amusing and engaging stories about father-child relationships.
Ideal for storytime or for one-on-one sharing."--School Library
