Before After

Book Overview

Which came first? No words are necessary in this beautiful, artfully humorous book, in which every turn of the page offers a surprise.

Customer Reviews

I usually don’t write bad reviews.

This book was barely at an acceptable level someone should have opened it and looked inside. There is so many children’s drawing and it looks like the child was learning to spell her name because it’s all over the book and it’s distracting for a book that’s suppose to be cause and effect with no words. If I would have paid more like $3 for this maybe it would have been expected but on amazon brand new it’s $11. And I paid $7 for something that just bothers me to look at. I wanted to return it but could find where I have that option. Most of your books are excellent quality despite the fact of being used but this one was an exception. And such a shame because the book itself is wayyy cool.
