About the Book

Griselda is so beautiful that her suitors literally lose their heads! Not only does she cause anyone who looks at her to lose his head -- she collects the lost heads, oblivious to the fact that everyone is terrified of her. When she runs out of willing companions, she finds a prince so myopic that for a short while he is able to be with her (before the inevitable happens). But they are together long enough that she has an extremely beautiful baby and for the first time ever Griselda learns what it's like to lose your head for someone you love. A funny and beautifully illustrated take on the pitfalls of narcissism.
About the Author: Isol is a young Argentine author and illustrator of children's books, who has been selected twice as a finalist for the Hans Christian Andersen Award and has won a Golden Apple at the Biennial of Illustration Bratislava. Her delightful leporello, Tener un patito es util (It's Useful to Have a Duck), was chosen by AIGA as one of its "50 Books/50 Covers" for concept and design, and it was also named one of "Los mejores libros para ninos y jovenes 2008" (The best books for children and youth 2008) by Venezuela's Banco del Libro. She has also written and illustrated Petit, the Monster and has illustrated Doggy Slippers by Jorge Luján, both highly acclaimed. In addition to being a creator of children's books, Isol is an advertising illustrator, a professional singer, a comic book writer and an active blogger.
