Wondering if your favorites from the movie made the book? Glad you asked!

The publishers said,

“There are 6 fingers on the Count’s right hand, 3 outlaws on a mission, 2 destined lovers, and 1 unforgettable story that brings them all together.”

How fun!

And the best part of bringing this back in a board book, is that parents can read along with their kiddos rather than setting them in front of a device or TV screen.

And honestly with all the Hollywood reboots like Star Wars and other shows streaming on Disney Plus, this will bring back the intimacy in families. Kind of like “the grandfather” reading the book to “the grandson” in the movie!

This book has it all as the author and publisher, Lena Wolfe partnered with Bill Robinson for illustrations. And it makes sense Robinson drew the colorful pictures!

He has not only drawn 15 children’s books but “is currently a character designer at DreamWorks Animation and his previous clients include Disney, Sony, Warner Bros, Reel FX, Nickelodeon, and HBO.”
