Press Here meets Eric Carle in a concept book that makes familiar ideas exciting and surprising.
From the creative mind behind Circle Under Berry comes this deceptively simple concept book exploring sorting, comparatives, and quantifiers that teases the brain, twists expectations, and teaches basic concepts in unusual ways. As with the best classic children's books, you read it once, read it ten times-and see something new every time. With an elegant and simple approach, this enigmatic, thought-provoking picture book shows young readers that everything in the world can be seen from infinite perspectives.
