Truly beautiful illustrations. I wanted to cut them all out and frame them on my walls. The story was nothing special. I could have been happy with no words.

A child's poem perhaps. The poetry, I'm not too impressed with, but the book is worth getting just to see the drawings that go along with the story.

Beautifully illustrated poem. Enchanting and requiring of lots of imagination. Perfect for kids.

If you look carefully you will find beautiful, magical things hidden within the things your eye might just miss. Beautiful illustrations help you discover the imagery described in this poem. This is a bedtime poem.

This is a lovely poem with a house-that-jack built quality.

I read this book to my son. It is so great. The Story makes you read with your heart. The artwork is inspiring. It has a gentle calm that relaxes my wee one and gets him ready to dream
