Mushroom Man

"This is a sweet, quiet story with a special message...." ?School Library Journal "Barry Moser's illustrations glow with the quiet warmth and heart of 'The Mushroom Man' and they complement so well this story of friendship." ?Eric Carle "A little gem about true friendship that was almost lost in the great grinder that is the publishing world. Thanks to Ethel Pochocki's lovely little story, Barry Moser's ever glorious pictures, and Tilbury House for rescuing it." ?Jane Yolen, author of Owl Moon, The Devil's Arithmetic, and others "Moser's shadowy, offbeat style harmonizes with Pochocki's uncommonly inspired text. A wonderfully odd tale of friendship." ?Publishers Weekly There once was a man who spent his days in the dark. He worked in a mushroom farm, and people called him the mushroom man, for he even resembled the crop he tended. Children teased him on the street, but the man had been blessed with a cheerful disposition. He was, for the most part, content'but he was lonely. In EtPochocki, Ethel is the author of 'Mushroom Man ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780884482789 and ISBN 0884482782.
