Bye, Car

Description

Two children are fascinated by the vehicles that surround them. Big, small, noisy, quiet, an endless stream passes through the streets each day, and the children wave them all goodbye. But exciting though they are, many vehicles also have a damaging impact on the environment. Is there a better way to get around? A greener alternative, BYE, CAR ......

Naomi shares a universal fascination with vehicles, traffic, motion, and commotion, popular especially with the young children in BYE, CAR, her seventh book. As a grandmother, gardener, and long-time kitchen scraps composter, she hopes we will all continue to find greener and cleaner ways to get from place to place, visit with each other, and take care of our earth for future generations. Naomi lives in Forest Hills, New York, a beautiful area to take walks, and she is the author of picture books about feelings, family, and friendship. Daniel is a British illustrator based in Lisbon. After studying at Arts University Bournemouth, then an epic backpacking adventure in Australia, and working for a couple of years in London, he decided to relocate to sunny Portugal. Daniel has worked on a variety of illustration projects from children's picture books to advertising, print, and card design. He enjoys using gouache and pencils to create the illustrations, and then compiles everything digitally for the final piece. When Daniel is not drawing, you can probably find him trying to catch waves, taking photos with old film cameras, or out on a hike.
