About the book

#1 New York Times-bestselling creators Brandon Sanderson and Kazu Kibuishi have teamed up, for the first time, to create a breathtaking picture book with enchanting illustrations for readers young and old...

In this humorous epic adventure, a boy is, on the one hand, having a very ordinary day. He does his math homework, his chores, and takes a nap...all while a surprising adventure unfolds around him involving pirates, dragons, and other unexpected perils.

With clever interplay between text and art and an expansive, imaginative arc, this modern classic is a landmark fantasy picture book perfect for fans of Hugo Cabret and After the Fall.
