How I Lost My Ear

How I Lost My Ear is the captivating novel by author Adam Beck and illustrator Simon Farrow. A rollicking adventure for all ages (and a great read-aloud book, too), the story spirals forward with a book-loving boy, a marching band, a moody grandmother with beautiful blond curls, a long-lost hero and his three-legged moose, a dancing bear, a poisonous spider, a baby-snatching owl, a shaggy yak of a man and his snapping turtle, a cold-hearted sheriff and his grinning deputy, a herd of 144 spitting llamas—and a very large, very hungry ogre.
