Voices in the Park (PB)

Author(s): Anthony Browne

Picture Books | Year 4 Set | Older Readers

"Four different voices tell their own versions of the same walk in the park. The radically different perspectives give a fascinating depth to this simple story which explores many of the author s key themes, such as alienation, friendship and the bizarre amid the mundane. Anthony Browne s world-renowned artwork is full of expressive gorillas, vibrant colours and numerous nods to Magritte and other artists, while being uniquely Browne s own style."
