💜 I just wanted to share this as well—Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe won 1st Place in the Picture Books 6 & Older category at the 2022 Purple Dragonfly Book Award.
🥔 🐀 I had so much fun staging this photo using real potatoes and…
unexpectedly, Zachary came out to pose as well. What a pleasant surprise! 😁
💜 Thank you so much, 2022 Purple Dragonfly Book Award for recognizing Zachary’s deliciously fun tale!
💜 And to the delightfully talented Giulia Lombardo—I will always be grateful!
✨ Praise for Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe✨
“Written in rhyme and sprinkled liberally with humour, Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe is a charming and quirky tale that’s great for reading aloud. Guilia Lombardo’s original illustrations really bring the characters to life, both human and animal. I particularly like one of Zachary’s twisty-whiskered pals! And there’s a delightful ending that shows that life is indeed sweeter when you share your good fortune with your chums.” –Nick Jones, Author, Full Media Ltd.
