Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A lyrical story about how looking back is helpful when you start looking forward. . . .
A young girl thoughtfully considers her family tree and the vibrant ancestors who populate it. As each family member's story is revealed, her quiet meditation--about what kind of person she'll be when she grows up--transforms into a testament to the importance of sharing family stories.
The simple, elegant narrative combined with Sean Qualls's evocative art makes for a wonderful read-aloud experience.
A young girl recalls the stories she has been told about the members of her family and wonders what kind of person she will become.
