This Moose Belongs to Me
Oliver Jeffers
Wilfred finds a moose. He names him Marcel. Wilfred gives commands to Marcel. Marcel does what he wants. One day, someone else claims Marcel was his moose first. What will Wilfred do?
I can't express enough how amazing Oliver Jeffers is. He delivers yet another visually stunning picture book and double whammy's it with a quirky and random story about a kid finding a moose and keeping him as a pet. This is by far Jeffers' best detailed illustrated book. Due to the detailed landscapes, they really should dominate the page but he somehow manages to bring the focus to Wilfred and Marcel throughout the book. You can pick out a Jeffers drawing out of a million along with the font. As always the font is the same and is what I like to call the 'Olly-J' font. This is perfect for the kid that reacts to visuals and has a creative mind. Adults, you are not excluded. Pick it up now!
-Marcel says so.
