Description
Wake Up, Percy Gloom is a fantastical tale of love and discovery from cartoonist Cathy Malkasian. After a 200-year slumber, kind-hearted Percy Gloom awakens to find himself in a strange new land, where he embarks on a quest to locate his mother. As Percy navigates this bizarre world, he encounters an array of inspired inventions and eccentric characters, including singing goats and furniture parades. Along the way, he pines for his long-lost love, Miss Margaret, but may find that their love story is not as doomed as he thinks. Malkasian's beautiful pencil drawings bring this imaginative world to life, filled with gentle humor, luminous landscapes, and a cast of characters who are both wise and flawed.
