It's the first day of school and all the animals are excited to get there - except Pascaline the bat. School is the last place she wants to go. 'Never, not ever!' she shrieks loudly. So loudly, that something magic happens...
Beatrice Alemagna, one of the most admired picture book illustrators of our time, uses art and story to explore the depths of children's feelings as few other illustrators do. In Never, Not Ever! she does something very special: she shares both the parent's and the child's points of view in a battle of wills over school attendance. Alemagna's colours, her characters' expressions, and her nontraditional self-taught style point to an inner playfulness and warmth that goes straight to the heart.
