In THE LOOKING BOOK, beloved author P. K. Hallinan uses lively rhyming
verse to invite children to delight in the wonders of the world around
them. Given a pair of "lookers" by their mom, two boys venture outside
to see what they can find. To their surprise, they discover "tree-things
and bee-things and roses and weeds . . . small things and tall things
and flowers with seeds," right in their own backyard. Before long, the
boys realize that they don't need the lookers at all. Whimsical
illustrations and sturdy pages will make this book a favorite with young
explorers.
