About this book
Look Up! by Jung, Jin-Ho. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780823436521.
A nearly wordless story about compassion, friendship, and perspective. High on a balcony, a girl watches the world-- passersby hurrying along, carrying umbrellas in the rain, riding bikes and walking dogs. She wishes that someone-- anyone!-- would look up and notice her. Finally, one day, a boy does. Realizing she cant see anything but the tops of peoples heads, he lays flat on the pavement. . . and then another person does. . . . and another. The girl smiles, and color begins to brighten her gray world-- as does her newfound friendship. With spare, simple text and striking black-and-white illustrations depicting the girls birds-eye-view of the world, Look Up! is a striking, emotional story about the incredible impact of simple kindnesses and the unexpected joy of looking at the world a new way. A Bank Street Best Childrens Book of the Year
