Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A tiger carries a dining room chair on her back. But why? Where is she going? With just one word per page, in lush, color-rich landscapes, we learn about the features that make up our world: an archipelago, a dune, an isthmus, a lagoon. Across them all, the tiger roams. An enigmatic investigation of our world's most beautiful places from bestselling author Dave Eggers, beautifully illustrated by debut artist Angel Chang.

* Each page introduces young readers to a different geographic element--from archipelagos to lagoons to gorges

* Quirky and enigmatic story with hipster appeal
