Little Fox and the Wild Imagination

Debut author Jorma Taccone, member of the hit comedy trio The Lonely Island has paired up with New York Times–bestselling, Caldecott Medal–winning illustrator Dan Santat to create Little Fox and the Wild Imagination, a picture book about time, space, and even giant-robot-squids.

BEWARE!

This is a tale of great caution, terror, and destruction...

of bath time, and bedtime, and the battle in between.

This is the story of Little Fox and one VERY BIG imagination.

Praise for Little Fox and the Wild Imagination

A beautiful story about our imagination and how it can change our mood, our minds, and our lives. It's good book for any little person who has a lot on their mind. —Amy Poehler, author of Yes, Please!
A tremendously fun book from one of the warmest, most creative fathers I know. —Seth Meyers
This adorable story of father-and-son bonding is as sweet as it is funny. —Al "Weird Al" Yankovic
Little Fox and the Wild Imagination is a loving look at the power of imagination and what happens when we lead our kids with love. —Maya Rudolph
Little Fox and the Wild Imagination had me at 'Pfffffft!' It's a gorgeous, epic adventure that's fueled by shared imagining born out of love. It has obstacles and struggles, as an epic must. It's exciting, seriously good-hearted, and very funny—words and pictures both. And maybe best of all (spoiler alert) its penultimate scene features 5,000 books! —Tony Kushner author of Angels in America
