Dear Sky,
Hello! It's me, Bubble!
I'm here!
Someone's breathed me
awake!
What is it like to be little? What is it like to be big?
Award-winning poet Joyce Sidman explores both in this lyrical picture book. Whether it's a small bubble writing to the enormous sky, or a mighty oak reassuring its tiny acorn, these surprising and delightful poems examine how we're all connected--in both big and small ways. Brilliantly illustrated by Caldecott artist Melissa Sweet, Dear Acorn (Love, Oak) will have readers dreaming up messages of their own to this big, beautiful world.
