Window

Summary: Another favorite!
Review: My children LOVED this book! It has no words, but each page is a view from a boys window in his house, from birth to when he starts a family of his own! It shows the changes in the area where he lives. I loved having my children tell me from one page/view to the next what had changed looking through the window. It also lends itself to having children make up their own story and dialog for the characters seen.

Summary: a book depicting urban sprawl, an excellent lesson in pictur
Review: This is an excellent wordless picture book that depicts urban sprawl from outside and inside a boys bedroom window. It is appropriate for children of all ages and can prompt some great discussions on environmental topics. It is poinant without any preachiness. This would be an excellent book to introduce an environmental education lesson!!!!

Summary: Shows you how powerful pictures can be. Thought provoking!!
Review: Windows is an amazing text free picture book that manages to say it all. Extremely relevant to the present times, Baker uses collage to view a boys life through a window. He grows up in the country and as he becomes older the scenary changes from his own house to a developed city. At age 20 he gets married and decides to move back into the country. In the last window we see the grown man with a child of his own and a sign across the road reading house blocks for sale. Very moving!!
