Highlights include:   "[A] stunning tour de force."— The New York Times "The pictures have a rich visual texture, vibrant color, and a naive style, which together imply a child as ostensible artist. This effect is well aligned with the playfully inquisitive text, with rhythm and repetition akin to books by Margaret Wise Brown and Ruth Krauss. . . . Have you ever seen a book quite like this? Not likely."— The Horn Book Magazine   Perfect for: Parents and caregivers seeking a read-aloud with thought-provoking questions Nature lovers Birthday, baby shower, or seasonal gift Fans of  The Little Prince , The Giving Tree , Not a Box , and  The Very Hungry Caterpillar
