Silvester decides to make one last puppet. But this one is different. When the old man speaks to him, Puppet speaks back. And then he starts to walk . . . While Silvester shows Puppet the town, the playground, and other wonders the world holds, Puppet in turn helps Silvester to make a new friend and share his puppet-making skills with the next generation. With themes of compassion and creativity, threaded with David Almond's inimitable humor, this wonder-filled story of creation and the circle of life, illustrated with wordless black-and-white spreads by award-winning artist Lizzy Stewart, is destined to become a modern-day classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e David Almond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9\/3\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.9\" H x 5.3\" L x 1.1\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781536239171\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flowerburst LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46696155742362,"sku":"9781536239171","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/3015\/4138\/files\/9781536239171.jpg?v=1761269150","url":"https:\/\/unclejonsbookfactory.com\/products\/puppet-david-almond-hardcover","provider":"Uncle Jon's Book Factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
