Book Reviews:
One of CCBC’S Best Books for Kids & Teens (2018)
“Atkinson’s message on being true to yourself is valuable . . . . His Photoshop artwork bursts with color and ingenuity.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Find room on the shelves for this picture book, because feeling like you don’t belong is universal… A solid choice for discussion, and one-on-one or small group sharing.” —School Library Journal
“[U]tter eye candy, with primary colours exploding on every page and each puzzle picture more vibrant than the one before… pure joy.” —Quill & Quire
Blue Spruce Award NOMINEE 2019
Oliver has always dreamed about where he will fit. Will he be in the mane of a unicorn? The tentacle of a pirate squid? The helmet of an astronaut? When he finally goes in search of his perfect place, he finds that trying to fit in is a lot harder than he thought. But like any puzzle, a little trial and error leads to a solution, and Oliver figures out exactly where he belongs.
Where Oliver Fits is a sweet and funny story that explores all the highs and lows of learning to be yourself and shows that fitting in isn’t always the best fit.
