Travis: I would imagine that bringing a character to a new format is a challenge. Many younger kids had already been responding to the illustrations and characters in the Narwhal and Jelly graphic novels despite the main audience being six years and up, so the board book format felt like it could be a fun and fitting place for that duo to dive into. I had been wanting to give it a go though, as my kids are pretty little (two years old and tour years old now) and my mind and house were filled (and still are!) with books for that age group. Either way, it didn’t take any convincing for everyone to be on board!Ī few of my picture books (MO’S MUSTACHE, REX WRECKS IT, and BOO WHO?) had been turned into board books, but I hadn’t yet approached making a book that was specifically for that format. ![]() ![]() ![]() Travis: So Narwhal and Jelly are coming to the board book world! How did this come to be?īen: I can’t recall if it was the Tundra Books team or me that mentioned the possibility of making board books first. Travis: Hi Ben!
