Your Island Board Book

This is your sun. It is coming up for you. This is your palm tree. It can go over by the sun. With a minimal tableau of images and a gentle rhythm suited to reading aloud, this board book assembles a farm and all the things to be found there – a horse, a truck, a stool, a fence. This is a farm for a very young child to have whenever they want to go there. One of a trio of board books which signal a departure for Jon Klassen - and a story whose peculiar touches of whimsy stamp the book as iconically his.
