TIME TO PEE!

New York: Hyperion Books for Children, 2003. Fine in fine dust jacket.. Signed first printing of Willems's second book for children, a potty training picture book about the ins and outs of going #1, complete with a progress chart and encouraging stickers. Mo Willems's art is minimalistic and expressive, hilarious and earnest. He began his career as a writer and animator for SESAME STREET, for which he earned six Emmy Awards - his successful shift into children's literature is not surprising. Willems's picture books have earned three Caldecott Honors, two Theodor Seuss Geisel Medals, and he was named the Kennedy Center's first educational artist-in-residence in 2019. 8'' x 10''. Original color pictorial boards. Original unclipped ($12.99) color pictorial dust jacket, with success chart to verso. Illustrated in color. Unpaginated. Signed by Willems to title page, with original drawing of a mouse. Sheet of illustrated progress stickers loosely tipped onto rear pastedown, complete. Sharp and bright.
