Born and raised a New Yorker and still, Christopher Franceschelli is a long-time publisher, editor, and creator of children's books. His inspiration for this book was the vivid memory as a seven-year-old watching a magician pulling a red ribbon out of one end of an impossibly little box- and then as the magician pulled on the other end, the red disappeared and a green ribbon appeared instead. Christopher sought to recreate that sense of wonder in Oliver.
"(oliver)" contains crisp, attractive text and drawings, using space, light, and dark elegantly. Small children will delight in pulling open the sturdy pages and experiencing Oliver's transformation over and over." --School Library Journal
