ROUND TRIP by Ann Jonas





Take a "round trip" with author/illustrator Jonas. You'll be on a cross-country adventure around mountains, through tunnels, across meadows, over bridges, until you finally reach the city. Then it's time to turn around - literally - as you turn the book upside down and go back home. This intriguing book with stark black and white graphics encourages readers to use their imagination to study each landscape. You'll be in for a surprise when the book is flipped and you view the same pictures from a totally different perspective. A Reading Rainbow selection when it was first published years ago, this book still confounds children and adults alike. Find it at E JON in the Easy section.
