Imagine his surprise when he realizes (too late) that it is a garden party! So, when Queen invites Halibut to the Palace for a party, it is only natural for him to fashion an ornate and glittering suit to blend in with the Palace walls. In order to stay undercover, Halibut makes his own suits out of fabrics with convenient patterns: he saves the brick wall pattern for when he goes into town, the flower pattern for the park, and the book pattern for the library. He wants nothing more than to blend into the background- any background. Parents and kids alike will love little Halibut with his penchant for wide brimmed hats and capes (ala Madeline) from the start-they just have to find him first. Quirky, sweet, and brilliantly illustrated, David Lucas' Halibut Jackson, has the makings of an instant classic.
