Snug in his pajamas, he reads books, bakes popovers, and plays with a big wicker basket--that he transforms into a rocket ship to fly in "innerspace." But soon, the outdoors is too tempting to resist, and he takes his wild imagination into <br> nature. That is, until it's time to come inside again. <br> Illustrated with the gorgeous paper cuts for which Nikki McClure is known, In reminds us of the essential childhood pleasures found in an engaged day of imaginative play and exploration, without electronics, scheduled activities, or adults.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The text finds simple joys in one's surroundings, and the consistent use of in versus out drives home this basic concept...McClure's cut-paper illustrations are filled with amazing detail."--Julia Smith "Booklist"<br><br>STARRED REVIEW <br> "The coziness and intimacy of childhood will reverberate with children and adults alike."--Laura Hunter, Mount Laurel Library, NJ "School Library Journal"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Nikki McClure</b> is a self-taught cut-paper artist known for her calendar and gift line.
