This absurdly clever and funny graphic novel, told entirely in palindromes, is created by World Palindrome Champion Jon Agee, author of Go Hang a Salami! I'm a Lasagna Hog! Otto is having a very palindramatic day. His pet, Pip, has gone missing, and his search for the dog leads him deeper and deeper into a strange and perplexing world--full of talking owls, stacks of cats, storms and mazes, boats and trains and automobiles . . . oh my! Everything seems to be the same backward and forward, and Pip isn't sure he'll ever find his way home to Mom and Pop. But you, reader, will enjoy his Oz-like journey thoroughly.Author: Jon AgeePublisher: Rocky Pond BooksPublished: 11/09/2021Pages: 144Binding Type: PaperbackWeight: 0.90lbsSize: 8.90h x 6.46w x 0.55dISBN: 9780147513496Audience: Ages 9-12Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 1.8Point Value: 0.5Interest Level: Middle GradeQuiz #/Name: 516092 / Otto: A PalindramaReview Citation(s): School Library Journal 09/01/2021 pg. 83Kirkus Reviews 08/15/2021 pg. 166Horn Book Magazine 03/01/2022Hornbook Guide to Children 01/01/2022 - Outstanding, Noteworthy In StyleAbout the AuthorJon Agee is the author/illustrator of many acclaimed books for children, including the Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor winner It's Only Stanley and the ALA Notable Books Little Santa, Terrific, Milo's Hat Trick, and The Incredible Painting of Felix Clousseau, and a series of popular wordplay books including the IRA-CBC Children's Choice book of palindromes, Go Hang a Salami!
