I See You
suddenly
among the tangled green
a tiny dollop of
frog
where before
there was only leaf
. . . Are you new here too?
When a shy girl moves to a strange new home, she discovers a treefrog
perched in a secret spot nearby and learns that sometimes, all it takes
to connect with the people and the world around us is a little patience,
a curious mind, and a willingness to see the world through a different
perspective than your own. With beautiful gouache illustrations by Diana
Sudyka and magical, perceptive poems from Newbery Honor-winning author
Joyce Sidman, the lives of one tree frog and the girl who discovers it
converge, bringing solace, courage, and joy in finding a kindred spirit.
