Review Quotes
"A very cute and memorable little book about the power of gratitude and taking the opportunity to stop and observe the world around you." - Rogene Carter (Educator)
"This picture book strikes a wonderful balance between dreaming about possibilities and also being accepting and welcoming of what you already have right in front of you. It encourages readers to imagine and wonder, but also to appreciate and be still. I love the variety of ways to look up and the different things to see. I also love that it ends with questions that would lead right into discussions/activities whether you are using this book for storytime, for a lesson or for your own kids at home. It's a picture book that could be used to inspire adults and coworkers as well." - Christie Belle (Educator)
""When I Look Up" is a beautiful picture book that encourages children to view the world around them. In an era where screens demand our attention and our heads are constantly tucked down, this picture book addresses the need to commune with nature, explore the world, and participate in outdoor play and imaginative games." - Jenna Mueller (Librarian)
About the Author
Ellen DeLange has been fascinated by picture books ever since she was a child growing up in the Netherlands. In the attic of her home she assembled a small library and shared her collection with friends and family. As an adult she started traveling and expanded her library with picture books from all over the world. Ellen also enjoyed inventing her own stories and was encouraged by her daughter to write her first picture book, A Story with a Tale. Ellen has a doctorate in medical sciences, and currently lives in Canada where she loves to walk in the woods with her Jack Russell terriers, drink lots of tea after a busy day, and sail on the ocean to clear her mind. When I Look Up is her third book. Jenny Meilihove is a freelance illustrator from Israel. Her father first taught her how to draw and instilled a love of art by taking her to galleries when she was a child. Later she majored in Illustration at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. Now Jenny makes illustrations for games, home décor, and paper goods. But illustrating children's books is what she loves the most. She wants her art to bring joy and happiness to everyone. When she's not busy making art, Jenny loves to sleep and to have tea with cookies. Even when she's asleep, she sometimes dreams about having tea with cookies.Shipping details
