“The phenomenal artwork is what truly makes this book special. The landscapes of the sea, the sky, and outer space are breathtaking. Cortés’s different blending and thinning of the colors create a world of beauty. This fascinating tale of perspective and point of view makes a fine addition for most collections.”

Party - A Mystery  
PARTY - A MYSTERY
by Jamaica Kincaid, illustrated by Ricardo Cortés


Three girls—Pam, Bess, and Sue—attend a party to celebrate the publication of the first of the Nancy Drew mystery books. There are many distractions at the fancy affair: flower arrangements, partygoers, refreshments, and lots and lots of marble.

Suddenly, the oldest girl, Pam, sees what can only be described as something truly . . . bilious . . . not good! Bess sees it too. The youngest, Sue, does not, and as usual she has a hard time getting anyone to tell her anything.

32 pages, hardcover

“The book’s effervescent pictures, and its playful, secretive ending, will have young readers paging through it again and again, constructing stories and observations of their own.”
Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine

“I loved Party. It’s a beautiful book right in the tradition of Ezra Jack Keats.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates
Author of The Water Dancer, Between the World and Me, and Marvel’s Black Panther
