Daniel, a young black boy, meets his grandpa at the park. His grandpa asks him, "What's new?" Daniel tells him that he will explore and find out. He sees a rock soaking up sun, a redwing blackbird, cattails sending out seeds, ducklings hatching, polliwogs growing legs and more. Daniel tells him all the things he has observed. His grandpa then asks "What's new with you?" What is new with Daniel?
What's New Daniel? sparks our own curiosity about nature, our self, and our important family members. The illustrations are gloriously detailed collages that invite us into Daniel's world.
