The story of Darryl's Daring Deed will excite and inspire young readers and their reading partners. But the story of the book itself, of it's young, autistic author-illustrator should inspire us all.
"In his first effort, emerging young author Paul Schifferli tells a tale of the young Dust boy Darryl, who yearns to be a hero. With his dust puppy Royce and with help from Dust Buzzard Bellfax, his journey takes him through the microscopic world of dust in the average family home. ... "Using variable rhyme schemes, the text of the book is rich, active, and full of dry humor, sure to engage readers both young and old. At times, the narrative and dialogue are punctuated by comments from the author to the reader directly, adding to the fun of reading it out loud."The illustrations are ... quite effective in giving the reader an energized representation of the central actions and relationships in the story."Darryl's Daring Deed will appeal to advanced 4-8 year old children and their reading partners." Cass Clarke Education Director Just Buffalo Literary Center
