Product Information
A #1 New York Times bestseller! A Kirkus Book Prize Finalist! A New York Times Best Children's Chapter Book the Year A Wall Street Journal Best Children's Book of the Year Caldecott Medalist and New York Times best-selling author-illustrator Jon Klassen delivers a deliciously macabre treat for folktale fans. Jon Klassen's signature wry humor takes a turn for the ghostly in this thrilling retelling of a traditional Tyrolean folktale. In a big abandoned house, on a barren hill, lives a skull. A brave girl named Otilla has escaped from terrible danger and run away, and when she finds herself lost in the dark forest, the lonely house beckons. Her host, the skull, is afraid of something too, something that comes every night. Can brave Otilla save them both? Steeped in shadows and threaded with subtle wit--with rich, monochromatic artwork and an illuminating author's note-- The Skull is as empowering as it is mysterious and foreboding.

Reviews
Klassen's recognizable graphite-and-ink illustrations capture the haunting--yet somehow charming--atmosphere of the stark Austrian setting, where shadows loom, bones come to life, and apricot sunshine cuts through the gloom. . . . Is the story creepy? You bet, but it's also weirdly sweet and characterized by agency, kindness, and choice. . . . Klassen's newest offering will be highly coveted. --Booklist (starred review) Echoes of other forbidding fairy tales pervade this high-stakes telling, in which Otilla's primal bravery and sly wit result in an arc from flight to mutual reliance. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) Caldecott medalist Klassen's signature style is brought to bear on a Tyrolean tale imbued with equal parts comfort and creepiness. . . . One can only hope that children will tell and retell this reinterpretation many times to themselves throughout the years. Employing his customary pitch-perfect tonal gymnastics, only Klassen could inspire readers to want craniums as pals. --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Unflappable Otilla and the unfailingly polite skull make for odd but exemplary companions in this well-paced tale, told in five parts (with most split into three brief sections), and illustrated in classic, deadpan Klassen style with speckled art that's both mesmerizing and dryly hilarious. --The Horn Book (starred review) Readers can enjoy a quick read, the implementation of interesting literary elements, and the humor that we have come to know from Klassen. --School Library Connection Jon Klassen brings his droll humor and just the right amount of spine-tingling creepiness to this retelling of a Tyrolean folktale. . . . Klassen uses his spare text to great effect and the mostly monochromatic illustrations provide just the right eerie echo. This is a book sure to be read over and over and over again. Even the most reluctant reader will be eager to keep these pages turning. --The New York Journal of Books, Caldecott medalist Klassen's signature style is brought to bear on a Tyrolean tale imbued with equal parts comfort and creepiness. . . .

Is the story creepy? You bet, but it's also weirdly sweet and characterized by agency, kindness, and choice. . . . Klassen's newest offering will be highly coveted. --Booklist (starred review) Klassen has proved especially good at introducing new, often solo, young readers to the unsettling but intriguing place where fear becomes an essential narrative element, offering enough humor and absurdity to provide comfort on the journey. Such is the case with The Skull , a reimagining of a Tyrolean folktale that shows a young girl's resolve against unnamed, unexplained threats. . . . the book offers a lesson on the usefulness of fear and likely a reminder of what kids already suspect: the world can be awful and scary, but empathy and friendship can arise from its darkest places. --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review) Unflappable Otilla and the unfailingly polite skull make for odd but exemplary companions in this well-paced tale. . . . illustrated in classic, deadpan Klassen style with speckled art that's both mesmerizing and dryly hilarious. The dark tones of the art are warmed by slants of peach-hued winter sunlight; like the scary-funny story, darkness and light work in tandem surprisingly well. --The Horn Book (starred review) Readers can enjoy a quick read, the implementation of interesting literary elements, and the humor that we have come to know from Klassen. --School Library Connection Jon Klassen brings his droll humor and just the right amount of spine-tingling creepiness to this retelling of a Tyrolean folktale. . . .
