Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Size is relative, but everything is worth seeing in this concept book from the illustrator of And Tango Makes Three .
Beginning with a beautiful close-up of a "big" ladybug, this book artfully depicts the concept of scale. The book zooms out from the bug, to a flower, to a cow, all the way to an expansive spread of sky. Then Henry Cole masterfully zooms back in from that sky, to a tree, to a house, to a window, all the way to the end where an adorable dog is taking a "little" nap.
In this ideal introduction to the concept of scale, young readers will love the lush illustrations of the animals, objects, and scenery of a farm, and they'll delight in seeing how something "big" can suddenly seem "little" with the turn of a page!
Beginning with a bug, various objects are revealed as being big and small in comparison with other objects on a farm under the big, big sky.
Ages 4-7.
