APPEALS TO: SOME


A young boy heads out early in the morning to explore his back yard garden. He finds lots of natural wonders that his imagination turns into great adventures until he is caught and taken back home.


"Giant Steps" contains minimal text leaving the reader to create more depth from the illustrations. Each picture spread contains many small details for the reader and child to discuss and maybe even research. A variety of art methods create dreamlike backgrounds for the almost scientifically detailed insects.
