A stunning new picture book for anyone who has ever felt unappreciated, from Academy Award winner Shaun Tan. Cicada works in a tall building as a data entry clerk for seventeen years without a sick day and without making a mistake. Cicada diligently works in an office, day after day, for unappreciative bosses and faces bullying from co-workers. But one day, something truly extraordinary happens. This is a story for anyone who has ever felt unappreciated, overlooked, or overworked but dreams of magic, from Australia's most acclaimed picture book creator. This is Shaun Tan's first author-illustrator book in five years and his most important and moving fable since "The Arrival.".
