Description

From the multiple award-winning creator of Small in the City and the illustrator of I Talk Like a River comes an innovative and moving look at memories, filtered through the mind of a child. Using a series of descriptions and the luscious pictures that accompany them, a boy and his mother share the memories that are most meaningful to them. Her gentle reassurance helps him adjust as he is about to move into a new home. With an audacious structure and brief, self-contained episodes, Sydney Smith takes us into the mind of the boy as he processes a bevy of complex emotions and experiences, contemplating his new surroundings.
