Perfect to provoke inquiry and variety in questions. I will use it as a provocation for IBPYP and Genius Hour.

Having 2 kids that asked me all kinds of questions, this book really made me smile.
Would be great for questioning unit in schools.

I love the theme of wondering and the illustrations are magical. I can't wait to read this at storytime.

From waking up to finally going to bed, the day is filled with questions. There are questions about whether the sun is really a kite. Do tires get tired? What are boy ladybugs called? Where are the unicorns? Could your belly button hold a galaxy? How do shadows work? Are toys lonely or sad? Do trees dream? One after another the questions are asked and left unanswered for the reader to think about and ponder. The book ends with children being reminded that they wonder because they are wonderful.
Holt’s text is a series of marvelous questions that really get readers thinking about wild possibilities in the world. If you are sharing this book aloud, expect conversations about the questions, some of which could lead to great discussions about fascinating topics. It is also a great book to read and quietly think deep thoughts on your own too. Pak’s illustrations are filled with a diverse cast of characters. The images are ethereal. They are also beautifully structured with curves of road, bubbles in water, and the night sky all featured in the course of the book.
A book to marvel at and wonder with. Appropriate for ages 3-5.
