After the Fall (How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again)

by Dan Santat

Recommended by

"We all know that Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, but then what? Wracked with fear and insecurity, Humpty has become terrified of heights. His only solace is making paper airplanes and watching them soar. But when one sails over the wall, Humpty must climb it or lose the plane, forever. Dan Santat’s hilariously touching story and magnificent illustrations give Humpty new life as he confronts his debilitating fear. The final twist in this totally original next chapter of a Mother Goose’s classic offers a stunningly triumphant ending that will take your breath away. (For ages 4 to 8)"
