Each question is a trigger for a potentially wide ranging discussion. It's a wonderfully interactive picture book. Read it and see where a child takes you." Sunday Times, Children's Book of the Week
"Quirky entertainment to jump-start creativity" Kirkus ReviewsNot all questions have answers. Some have more than one answer. And others have endless answers, unfolding out to the edges of the world. In this spare yet expansive narrative, acclaimed author Mac Barnett poses twenty questions both playful and profound. Some make us giggle. Others challenge our assumptions. The result is a quirky, wandering exploration of where the best questions lead - to stories.
Intriguing, richly interactive, and brought to vivid life by, Caldecott Honor Artist, Christian Robinson's bright and whimsical illustrations,
Twenty Questions is a charming invitation to speculate without limits and know no bounds.
