Brizida Magro is a talented illustrator with bright, graphic artwork. Raised by her grandmother and sister, she spent her childhood in a small Portuguese fishing town. Growing up, they would often make things by hand as a family. Her childhood has greatly influenced her current work, which blends together the innocence of vintage children’s art, the naiveté of folk art, and frolicking adventures through mountains and deserts. She works primarily in digital media, often with an analogue touch that incorporates collage, ink, and china marker. She enjoys simplicity, whimsy, wee characters, and collecting vintage papers. Brizida holds a BFA in Illustration from Brigham Young University and an MFA in Graphic Design from Utah State University. Find her on Twitter as @BrizidaMagro and on Instagram as @sweetbeyond.
This simple story will appeal to any bike-mad dad who is desperate to share his passion with his offspring.
The Big Issue
Just right for sharing with young children starting out on the road to becoming competent cyclists.
Books for Keeps
This book is beautifully illustrated […] Those who are learning the skills of pedalling, balancing and being brave will recognise the stages this young athlete goes through, and if these things are not familiar, they are explained through the text and illustrations and will undoubtedly become goals for young readers. […] A book that children from around two years old to six would enjoy with adults as well as alone.
Read for Good
This tale of patience and determination is one to share especially with those starting on the road to becoming confident bike riders.
Red Reading Hub
A charming and gentle story with a message that you might summarise as ‘the family that bikes together, stays together’. […] It’s also a lesson about trust and how to come to terms with taking your time to master new skills.
