Little Pea: A Picture Book

Davide Cali

Discover Little Pea's debut in this gentle, joyous picture-book story from award-winning author Davide Cali and illustrator Sébastien Mourrain about embracing what makes us unique--in this specially formatted edition.

Little Pea was born tiny, but with big aspirations. As he grows up, he loves to climb, explore, swim, daydream--just like any other kid his age.

Praise for this book

"Whimsy rules in Davide Cali's picture book about a boy so small he can ride on the back of a grasshopper. Little Pea can bed down in a matchbox, quench his thirst with a single drop of dew and use a stack of Legos for climbing practice."-- "Wall Street Journal" (3/16/2023 12:00:00 AM)
"Little Pea is an entirely charming book that invites readers to find joy in every part of life, whether it is playing with toys, encouraging plants to grow, or exploring art because it's impossible to know where these passions will lead." Highly Recommended -- "Canadian Review of Materials" (3/16/2023 12:00:00 AM)
