A young girl and her basset hound explore nature asking the question, "Who are you?"  As the young girl wanders, she finds her identity through her experiences.  She is the rock beneath her and the clouds above her.  She is the grass and the butterfly.  She is the howling wind and the raindrops.  In her thoughtful wanderings she gets lost and frightened.  What does she realize when she finds her way home?

Keane gives us a thoughtful simplistic story about how every moment, both good and challenging, shapes who we become. I  liked Keane's loose style of illustration.
