Open the pages of this picture-book guessing game, and you'll see pictures of a perfectly ordinary town. But wait until you look behind the scenes. Candymakers build a rocket ship, a circus performs... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Geoff Grahn is my favorite illustrator working in the U.S. today. I was thrilled to find he finally published a picture book. The illustrations are playful and fantastic, and the concept is as quirky as you'd expect coming from such an original, idiosyncratic artist. But that's all from an adult's perspective--kids will love guessing what strange activities are taking place behind the windows of each building in Grahn's town. It's exactly the type of book that would have fueled my imagination when I was a kid, and I plan to give it as a gift this year to all the kids I know--both old and young.
