Higgins and Miyares explore the concept of size in a metaphorical way that inspires whimsy and thought. For students who are old enough to start discussing the world in a less literal way, this could inspire a whole day of thought exploration, including brainstorming, art creation, writing, and Socratic discussions. Once you’re done with these size concepts, you could move on to The Quiet Book by Deborah Underwood.
