Fanciful, fascinating settings and lots of room for observation and interpretation, this has lovely artwork that is part child whimsy and part masterful illustration. Wonderful colors and delightful animals provide much to enjoy.
I really enjoyed this book. I think the images and pictures are very colorful and keep your attention throughout the story.
The picture spreads are one more beautiful than the others. It's a book of living room paintings. Never mind whether the story line makes sense to you or not, ultimately it doesn't really matter ...
A delightfully whimsical, wordless wonder.
I'm just not the target audience for these, I guess.
