The Hello, Goodbye Window
Books | Juvenile Fiction / Fantasy & Magic
Norton Juster
This is a love song devoted to that special relationship between grandparents and grandchild. The kitchen window at Nanna and Poppy's house is, for one little girl, a magic gateway. Everything important happens near it, through it, or beyond it. Told in her voice, her story is both a voyage of discovery and a celebration of the commonplace wonders that define childhood, expressed as a joyful fusion of text with evocative and exuberant illustrations.The world for this little girl will soon grow larger and more complex, but never more enchanting or deeply felt.

"Story: 3.5 stars<br/>Images: 1 star<br/>Actual: 2.5<br/><br/>When I heard Chris Raschka was the illustrator for this book I groaned. And he didn't disappoint! Or he did, but since I expected it, he didn't. It's a shame because the story is cute.<br/><br/>"
