Description

Fans of Peter Brown and Jon Klassen will cherish this inspiring story about exploration, curiosity and an unexpected discovery.

There are wonders all around us ... Why not go see what you can find? Every day, perched high up in her tree house, a girl surveys the distant forest through her binoculars. She knows every plant and animal. But look! A strange new tree appears, towering above all the others. Where did it come from? Is it really a tree? Intrigued, the girl sets off to take a closer look. Just to see...

Whimsical illustrations bring humor to an inspirational story about staying curious, finding wonder in nature, and seeing the familiar in new and unexpected ways.

Kirkus

A simple, fanciful story about the rewards of courageously exploring the unknown.

ALA/Booklist

A peculiar delight... a myriad of darling details to keep young readers engrossed and examining each page... a thrilling call to seek out the unknown and discover the small wonders that await in every setting.
Morgane de Cadier

Before she could write, Morgane de Cadier dictated stories to her mother about overly curious parrots and elephants setting off on a world tour. After training in drawing at Emile Cohl, an animation school in Lyon, France, Morgane chose to turn to her very first passion: telling stories. Morgane lives in Lyon.

Florian Pigé developed his passion for children's literature at Emile Cohl, the same school where Morgane de Cadier studied. Florian has received several awards, including the Landerneau Prize, a French literary prize, in 2020. Florian lives in Lyon, France.
