Randy knows he’s a beautiful horse—everyone says so. From his silky coat to his perfect smile to his very name, reserved only for the most special of creatures, Randy is beyond compare.
This laugh-out-loud picture book plays with expectations and takes you inside a child’s imaginary world, through construction-paper mountains, popsicle-stick forests, and sandpaper deserts. Readers are sure to fall for this maybe-not-so-beautiful but wholly endearing character.
★”[Randy] will make readers laugh . . . . Give this book a prime spot on the metafiction shelf.”
—School Library Journal, starred review
“McBeth’s meta-comedy is filled with three-dimensional illustrations . . . . A lovely affirmation of creativity and unconditional love.”
—Publishers Weekly
RANDY, THE BADLY DRAWN HORSE is a MacKids School & Library Staff Pick!
S&L Director Lucy says, “Illustrated with crayon drawings and familiar arts-and-crafts materials including popsicle sticks and glitter glue, this is an imaginative laugh-out-loud book that celebrates being proud of, and comfortable with, who you are.”
