Penguin Young Readers is proud to present PAPILIO, a delightful and imaginative picture book crafted by the dynamic trio of Eisner Award winner Ben Clanton, Caldecott Honor winner Corey R. Tabor, and creator of A Home Under the Stars Andy Chou Musser. This unique collaboration brings to life the charming tale of Papilio Polyxenes, the Black Swallowtail Butterfly, in a story told in three captivating parts. Perfect for fans of The Very Hungry Caterpillar,PAPILIO introduces young readers to an adorable and hilarious caterpillar who is ready to embark on her journey to become a butterfly. As she navigates the complexities of growing up, Papilio learns to fly, fall, and feed, all while avoiding foes and making friends. Through her transformation from caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly, she discovers the importance of believing in herself. PAPILIO is a heartfelt exploration of the emotions that accompany life's big firsts. The expressive character of Papilio exudes the full range of feelings that children experience as they grow and discover their inner strength. With its blend of humor, heart, and educational value, PAPILIO offers a fresh and modern take on the life cycle of a butterfly. Ben Clanton (Caterpillar) is the New York Times bestselling and Eisner Award-winning author and illustrator of the Narwhal and Jelly series. Some of his other titles include It Came in the Mail, Ploof (an interactive new picture book series co-created with Andy Chou Musser), and the Tater Tales books. Ben makes books in Seattle, Washington where he lives with his family (which on occasion includes a few roly-polies and butterflies). Corey R. Tabor (Chrysalis) is the author/illustrator of Mel Fell, a Caldecott Honor recipient, and the winner of the first Barnes & Noble annual picture book award. He is also the creator of the Fox early reader and picture book series, which has garnered two Geisel Medals (Fox the Tiger and Fox Is Late). He is not new to the practice of venerating insects—his graphic novel series Sir Ladybug (about a ladybug knight who is heroic but shy) debuted last year. Andy Chou Musser (Butterfly) is the author-illustrator of A Home Under the Stars, his debut picture book, which received a starred review from Kirkus Reviews and a silver medal from the Society of Illustrators of LA. He's co-creator of two new series: Science Explorers (the first book is Search for a Giant Squid) with Amy Seto Forrester, and Ploof with Ben Clanton. Andy lives in Seattle with his partner and two cats, who spend a lot of time together watching butterflies and other critters zooming around the garden.
