Quest
Becker, Aaron 1974-
Quest Aaron Becker - First edition - Somerville, Massachusetts Candlewick Press 2014 - 40 unnumbered pages color illustrations 25 x 28 cm - [Journey trilogy book 2] .
Audience: Ages 4-8
In the Caldecott Honor-winning Journey, much of Becker's energy was devoted to the story's exquisite backdrops. Now, in the second wordless book of his planned trilogy, the focus is on his characters. On a rainy day in a city park, the girl who starred in Journey and the boy introduced at the end take refuge by a doorway under a bridge. To their surprise, a king emerges from the door just long enough to pass the two a map before soldiers apprehend him. Returning to the magical Pallonezia, they find the walled city in flames, under siege. Becker includes wonderfully evocative set pieces - a submerged city, a Mayan temple - as the pair follows the map to collect chalk markers in all the colors of the rainbow to free the king and save the city
