Summary:
In this one-of-a-kind, wordless picture book, a child is making her way home from school, imagining what's behind the windows of the houses and other buildings she passes. And that's where the fun begins. Think The Way Home in the Night meets M.C. Escher in Wonderland! When the book opens, we see the little girl through a
window
at school, daydreaming at her desk. Then we follow the girl on her walk home, past houses, shops and other buildings. Along the way, we come to a
window
just a
window
. What's on the other side of it? There's only one way to find out: open the gatefold and see! There are thirteen windows to open, and behind each, a fantastical scene is revealed an indoor jungle, a whale in a bathtub, vampires playing badminton. Behind the very last
window
, we see the child in her own home. Each
window
contains a clue to what's behind it e.g. for the "Jungle," a couple plants sit on the
window
ledge, for the "Bath," the
window
is round, like a porthole. Each whimsical scene is intricately drawn in black and white and packed with amusing details for readers to explore. A joyous celebration of curiosity and imagination.
