The Liszts
The Liszts | Kyo Maclear
5 posts | 4 read | 6 to read
The Liszts make lists. They make lists most usual and lists most unusual. They make lists in winter, spring, summer and fall. They make lists every day except Sundays, which are listless. Mama Liszt, Papa Liszt, Winifred, Edward, Frederick and Grandpa make lists all day long. So does their cat. Then one day a visitor arrives. He's not on anyone's list. Will the Liszts be able to make room on their lists for this new visitor? How will they handle something unexpected arising? Kyo Maclear's quirky, whimsical story, perfectly brought to life with the witty, stylish illustrations of Júlia Sardà, is a humorous and poignant celebration of spontaneity.

The Liszts by Kyo Maclear and beautifully illustrated by Julia Sarda is the story of a family of list makers. They make so many lists that they have trouble doing anything else, until a stranger comes and opens up their world. Maclear's words are perfectly matched with Sarda's art. This is a lovely book perfect for reading while snuggling with a friend on a cold fall evening. #kyomaclear #juliasarda #picturebook #liszts #readaloud

A weird and wonderful book about a family of obsessive list-makers. The illustrations are lush and atmospheric, the characters are eccentric and detailed. Good for adult coffee tables and children's bookshelves alike.

Centique Sounds like I might be descended from this family. So many lists! 8y
