The Looking Book

Presented in a new format, this delightful book encourages children to take a look at the wonder of the world around them. In The Looking Book, beloved author P. K. Hallinan uses lively rhyming verse to entice children to delight in the wonders of the world around them. Given a pair of 'lookers' by their mom, two boys step outside and see how much fun they can have. 'This grass is amazing!' he suddenly said. 'There are all kinds of things here -- brown, yellow, and red! There are twig-things and rock-things And dirt-things and string-things, Along with a whole lot of little black bug things!' Before long, the boys realize that they don't need the lookers at all. Delightfully whimsical illustrations convey the excitement of the characters. Ages 4 to 8.
