#1 New York Times bestselling, award-winning author Mo Willems and Caldecott Medal winner and National Book Award winner Dan Santat join hands in this innovative picture book about lefties (and righties)!

Did you know, there was a time when people could get in trouble—really, really BIG trouble—for being LEFT-HANDED!?

It’s true!


Lefty and Righty hand out the facts in a theatrical performance that spans the ages. Once upon a time, left was considered wrong . . . but now, left or right, it’s all alright. (And there are scissors for everyone!)

Created by the award-winning (right and left) hands of New York Times bestselling authors Mo Willems and Dan Santat, this book ensures that no one gets left behind!

"Powerhouses Mo Willems and Dan Santat cleverly use their own hands to provide energetic, entertaining, enlightening, empowering encouragement to children to never hide their true selves." Shelf Awareness

“Willems and Santat’s collaboration provides an engaging conversation starter to help ensure that no child feels the need to hide any part of themself. What could be righter than that?” Horn Book
