Hidden

Author: Larissa Ferenchuk
Illustrator: Fiona West

Publisher: EK Books

"What a charming and healing book is Hidden. 

Ferenchuk’s tender text observes the often detached ‘islands’ of urban life in the street where the little protagonist's neighbours live their busy lives in isolation. But the little girl, hiding in a giant fig tree, always watching, has a simple solution. West’s energetic mixed-media and collage illustrations are whimsical and lively, striking just the right tone to harmonise with the writer’s voice, — a successful collaboration, where writer and illustrator alike stay true to their readers.  

Of course, the story ends joyously — the kind of satisfying ending that every young child will approve of. A gorgeous and sincere picture book made with heart that never descends into cliché or sentimentality. Lovely."
