Review

Imagination is the focus in this picture book about a little girl who knows about secrets.She shares these secrets one sentence at a time on one page at a time. What is unique about this way of presenting secrets is that the last word in the sentence one one page is the first word in the next sentence."Secrets are for whispering. Whispers hide in the trees. trees make great umbrellas. Can you guess what the next sentence will start with? Paola Zikimi continues the journey of the imagination by creating large, soft pencil illustrations that support that single sentence.this is a book that needs to be read more than once and looked at to find the secrets revealed.

Overall Book Score: excellent
