- Book Synopsis
- This magnificent new title from Icinori starts as a word book of things to be thankful for and turns into a thrilling adventure story along the way A BookPage Best Picture Book of 2024! A 2025 Bank Street College of Education Best Children's Book of the Year, Outstanding Merit! One of 100 Scope Notes's Most Astonishingly Unconventional Books of 2024! One of Maria Popova's Marginalian Favorites of 2024! What starts as a series of "thank yous" addressed to common objects that inhabit our daily lives gradually builds into a fantastic journey across landscapes, seasons, and inner discoveries. Deceptively simple, each page acknowledges the contributions of a different object (spoon, rock, beasts) or concept (summer, slumber, surprise), with each image building on the next to create a dazzling narrative that invites readers to puzzle and play, explore and discover, appreciate and marvel. Aaron Becker's Journey meets Carter Higgins's Circle Under Berry in this visual tour de force and invitation to look at the world with new eyes.
