Tell Me a Tattoo Story

32 pp. | Chronicle | April, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4521-1937-3 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Eliza Wheeler. After his son asks to see his tattoos, a father explains each piece of art on his body and how it reflects a moment in his life; Wheeler's fine India ink, dip pen, and watercolor illustrations replay the anecdotes. A bit precious and lacking the child's voice, this book is an ode to--and an item for--the new generation of hipster parents.
