Reviews
“The Island Behind the Horizon is a tour de force by illustrator Benjamin Leroy. Though monkeys aren’t the easiest animals to draw for most illustrators, Leroy draws them with fun and personality.”
“This precious picture book tells us that the biggest blusterers are often not the biggest heroes, on the contrary. This is a refined and recognizable story.”
