so big
“How’d I get so big?” Ethan wondered after his mother gave him a big hug and said, “You’re my big boy!” Riley Ostermann’s book, So Big is an absolute delight of a children’s tale. Ostermann beautifully renders the unbreakable bond between mother and child and brings a wondrous joy to teaching children about the importance of being healthy. Boys and girls alike are introduced to the value of nutritious meals, exercise, and rest in order to grow up so big.
illustrations
The pictures in this book are like no other children’s book. These unique illustrations were hand drawn by John Ostermann and colored by crayon. The use of crayon added to the sweet innocence depicted in the story. John did a superb job portraying the real Ethan and capturing childhood all together. John Ostermann is an artist who enjoys drawing in several different styles. While attending Texas A&M University, John won several drawing contests. He now enjoys illustrating for children. John lives near Houston, TX with his family, Allison, and son’s, Hayden and Noah.
