Synopsis

Illustrated with elaborate and gorgeous collage constructions, Window is a wordless picture book that speaks volumes. It begins with a mother and baby looking through a window at a view of wilderness and sky as far as the eye can see. With each page, the boy grows and the scene changes, from forest, to a single house, to a village and then to a city.

'...a very moving, sophisticated picture book...illustrated with wonderfully detailed collages.' Nursery Education
Window is the companion to Belonging.
