Scribble acquires Jennifer Higgie picture book

Miriam Rosenbloom, commissioning editor of Scribe’s children’s imprint Scribble, has acquired the world rights for Jennifer Higgie’s debut children’s picture book, There’s Not One.

Higgie, the co-editor of art publication Frieze Magazine, has created a book using collaged images, inspired in part by the cut-out pictures by Matisse and based on the idea of being both unique and part of something greater.

Rosenbloom said: “Jennifer’s book is a glorious ode to the big and small of the world around us. It makes you feel joyous just by turning the pages—no small feat in this day and age—and I can’t wait to share it with readers.”

Scribble will publish There’s Not One as a 28-page in November this year, priced at £10.99.
