LOOK!

Jeff Mack

Simple yet richly creative, cleverly and colorfully illustrated with textures and creative type designs, and surprisingly funny and tender given the sparsity of text, LOOK! is the type of book that captivates everyone who sees it.
Everyone needs a little attention from time to time. Just ask our gorilla who will stop at nothing to be noticed by the boy with his eyes glued to the TV set. But for the gorilla, it’s going to take more than a quiet nudge to steal away the boy’s attention. When his usual antics fail to catch the boy’s eye—LOOK OUT! The gorilla has some other tricks up his sleeve.

Using only two words—LOOK and OUT—Jeff Mack relates an adorably hilarious story about an attention-loving gorilla, a television-loving boy, and a friendship that develops over books. Simple in construct yet richly creative, this interactive and colorful tale will leave children laughing and loving books for years to come.

Originally from Syracuse, NY, Jeff Mack grew up fascinated by monsters and robots. He built his own pinball machines from cardboard boxes, and created comic books about his four siblings being devoured by monsters. Now at home in Western Massachusetts, he continues to write, paint, and talk with school groups about his various projects. Jeff is the author/illustrator of such books as Good News Bad News and Ah Ha!

...hat-tips to the physicality of books that hint at a happy ending for bibliophiles of all ages.... Audiences will love that gorilla: hulking, eager-to-please and almost palpably furry, he’ll be welcome in any room.
