Recently, he finished 5 Shots: a graphic novel collection he authored with five stories (hence the title) focused on the case files of a female private eye named Jay Nova who – off the books – helps desperate people resolve "situations" they can’t, or won’t, go to the law with. The publications he contributed to include: “Double Danger Tales”, “Legacy: Uprising”, “Foreshadow” and “Foreshadow: Full Speed”.

The Korgi series has previously release four volumes in total, with the most recent, The Problem with Potions, having been published in October of 2016. The series has followed a young Mollie, Ivy, and her canine companion, Sprout, on a series of adventures both in and out of their home, the Korgi Hollow. The first Korgi graphic novel, Sprouting Wings, was published back in 2007. Will the residents of Korgi Hollow survive the harsh cold? One thing is for sure: nothing will ever be the same. Fire and ice will collide in a timeless battle between good and evil. At long last, saddle up for the conclusion of this “silent” epic fairytale told entirely through detailed pen-and-ink drawings.

Together they have sold some 75 million copies. She has published more than 60 of them, including the perennial best sellers Pajama Time! Moo, Baa, La La La! Barnyard Dance! and The Going to Bed Book. But she is best known for her board books, written for the youngest children and the parents who read aloud to them. Since the early 1970s, Boynton has herded her animals onto greeting cards, calendars, and songbooks. These were unmistakably Sandra Boynton chickens. Bright, fat beaks and combs bulged out from stoic, teardrop bodies. I knew I was in the right place when I spotted cartoon-fowl statuaries flanking the gate of a rural drive. ![]() |
