The Top Spot - Hardcover

by Frank Weber (Author)

For fans of MR. TIGER GOES WILD and I WANT MY HAT BACK, author-illustrator Frank Weber presents style, stunning illustrations, and sly humor in THE TOP SPOT, which explores themes of happiness and the why of competing in the rat race called life.

A little ibex is challenged to compete against the bigger ibexes for the top spot in the herd, a contest the little ibex stands no chance of winning. With the help of a wise mountain goat, the little ibex returns home, outsmarts his rivals, and claims the top spot. But is it everything he thought it would be?

Frank Weber's debut, MORE DUNG!, combined scatological humor with existential angst. THE TOP SPOT continues the existential tradition, inviting young readers to continue asking their favorite question: why?
