Description
Picture a sky as big as all outdoors, a fence disappearing over a hill, a crow then appearing, a boy looking up, watching, wondering. Not much more than a moment but the meeting lofts a rush of childhood questions- 27 in all-inspiring answers as big as all outdoors. Caldecott medalist Chris Raschka, himself the boy perhaps, has created a book in the sparest language against the simplest setting, to inspire in any young listener the wonder of wondering.
