This precious book perfectly encapsulates the wonders children discover as they age from years 0ne through 6.
What the author deems to be "the most important" aspect of various everyday objects is debatable. "The important thing about a daisy is that it is white." Really? They're a source of food for organisms. They attract pollinators. They provide aesthetic appeal. "The most important thing about about snow is that it is white." Really? Snow is a part of Earth's climate system and fresh water supply. Surely that's more important than the colour.
I love this book! The descriptions of certain objects and things found in nature are lovely, and this could lead to great thinking about what is most important about a child or reading or whatever the teacher's lesson is about.
A lovely tale about growing up with fluid, appealing mid-century illustrations.
I really did not like this book, it is repetitive, and annoying, and lacking in creativity but the most important thing about this book is that I didn't like it.
Loved the illustrations -and the idea of the text is great- but overall this fell short for me. I wish the author had picked other things to highlight from these ordinary objects. It just seemed so random.
I enjoyed the illustrations, but not the text very much.
This book is pretty right on! I think it is an important book to little tikes. In fact, the text reminds me of things Mr. Rogers would say. My four-year-old doesn't sit for just any book, but he sat and listened to this one. It's not my favorite of hers by any means, but the previous sentence is proof my son took it seriously. Written by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrated by Chris Raschka.
