The Big Question
Book Island 2014
$29.99hb 32pp
ISBN 978 0 9941 0984 2
Themes: Love – the meaning of
The animals are having their AGM and after elephant has
posed his big question they all have much to think about and answers to give.
That is everyone except Ant who is too busy writing things down and bustling
about. And elephant’s question? How do you know when you love someone? This
is one of those rare but special books that will mean different things to many
people and will be appreciated by a wide age range. Small children will spend
many moments on each page identifying the images; older people will ponder on
the meanings of the words. And
everyone (except Ant) will go away to think further about the ideas that have
been raised.
