Questions such as <i>What do clouds taste like?, </i> <i>Do my toys miss me when I'm gone?, </i> and <i>I wonder if cars and trucks speak the same language</i> remind us of a child's unique point of view. Nothing is more powerful than seeing something for the first time, and these whimsical questions will encourage all readers to take a fresh look around them. <br>Exquisite artwork by rising star Kenard Pak follows the arc of a day, ending with a spread showing a group of children as different and varied as their questions.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Pak's artwork is <b>delicate</b> and serious, echoing shapes and colors across a spread to forge connections.
