From the bestselling and award-winning bookmaker Jon Klassen comes a trio of companion board books perfect for sharing with the youngest of children.
With a minimal tableau of familiar objects and a gentle rhythm suited for reading aloud, a farm, a forest and an island are assembled with all their items, ending with bedtime as the sun goes down. These are places for a young child to have whenever they want to go there. This trio of board books, focusing on safe spaces, comfort, and imagination, signals new ground for Jon Klassen, even as peculiar touches of whimsy stamp them as iconically his.
Your Places Box Set includes:
Your Farm
Your Forest
Your Island
