PATCH OF SKY
A fiercely determined girl will do anything to help her best pig friend finally see the sky in this unique friendship story.
Pia just found out the terrible news that pigs can't look straight up, which means her best friend and right-hand-pig Patches has never seen the sky. If you ask her, that is absolutely cuckoo bananas. Now Pia is on a mission to share the beauty of the big wide sky with Patches... and she will do whatever it takes!
From debut author-illustrator Nic Yulo comes this story of determination, empathy, and learning to look at the world (and the sky!) in a whole new way.
Key selling points:
- Friendship: Pia and Patches's sweet relationship is the heart of this story, and all animal lovers will appreciate their bond.
- Try, try again: This story has a message of perseverance and finding a unique solution to a difficult problem, without ever coming off as preachy.
- Finding common ground: When Pia realizes Patches won't be able to see the sky in the most traditional manner, they find the opportunity to share this experience in a different way that's just as special.
- An exciting new voice: Nic Yulo has already made a name for herself as a writer and director in film and in video game development, and this picture book debut will make her a creator to watch.
Nic Yulo is a NYC-based author and writer-director with an M.F.A. from Columbia University's Film Program. In 2019, she was named a Top 15 Semi-Finalist for SeriesFest's Women Directing Mentorship in partnership with Shondaland. Patch of Sky is her debut picture book.
