Carter Higgins is a master of rhythm and simplicity. By keeping things simple, she taps into the profound concept of perspective. And the idea that there isn’t ONE right way to look at things. Kids and parents will love the read aloud experience.

Her graphic shapes and interesting textures create a playful visual experience that interacts with the text in interesting ways. The immense white space around the visuals feels just as important in this well-designed book.
